Hilal have now gone two games without a victory in the league and it continues to reduce their chances of fighting Ittihad for the top spot in the Saudi Pro League. From that 1-3 devastating defeat at home to Al-Nassr to the 1-1 draw against Ettifaq, the story of Hilal continues to unfold this season. Hilal’s last opponent in the Saudi Pro League was Al-Ettifaq and even though Ettifaq drew the first blood in the dead of the first half, Malcolm was ever ready to give Hilal the equalizer in the early minutes of the second half.
Marcos Leonardo is the current top scorer for Hilal with 17 goals to his name this season. They are second placed in the league table with 18 wins, 4 draws, and 5 losses from 27 games. They’ll face Gwangju In the Quarterfinals of the AFC Champions League later this month. Hilal is also the team with the highest goals scored in the league this season, with 74 goals to the good.
Al-Hilal: Possible Lineup
As always, Alexander Mitrovic will start up front in the regular 3-4-3 formation by Jorge Jesus paired with Malcolm and Marcos Leonardo. Remember that Malcolm got the only goal of the game and the equalizer for Hilal against Ettifaq last time out. Hilal will still require his high level of expertise and talent on the pitch on Thursday.
🔖 Al-Hilal Probable starting lineup (3-4-3)
Bono – Albulayhi, Koulibaly, Al-Tambakti,— Renan Lodi, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Kanno, Cesar – Leonardo, Malcom – Aleksandar Mitrovic
👤 Head coach: Jorge Jesus

Al-Khaleej: form and statistics
Khaleej couldn’t hold up the forte as they were thrashed by a 1-5 scoreline in their last league game against Fateh. The most devastating part of the defeat was that Khaleej got the first goal of the game in the 4th minute but what ensued afterward was tears and sorrow for Khaleej. Khaleej have now only secured a win in their last 10 league games. With this poor form Khaleej, we might already have a good guess on how Thursday's encounter against the phenomenal Al-Hilal will play out, a defeat is imminent for Khaleej. They are currently 10th placed in the league with 9 wins, 6 draws and 12 losses from the 27 league games played and Al-Salem leads the team's effort on goals with 10 goals to the good. The last time they faced Hilal, Al-Salem got a brace but the possibility of that happening again is very very slim.
Al-Khaleej: Possible Lineup
One thing is sure, Al-Salem will not miss this game for anything in the world as the fans will be expecting a masterclass from him on Thursday as did he in the first leg encounter.
🔖 Al-Khaleej starting lineup (4-2-3-1)
Ozaybi – Hamzi, Al-Fahad, Al-Shaafi, Rebocho – Al-Semeiry, Kourbelis – Murg, Fortounis, Martins – Al-Salem
👤 Head coach: Georgios Donis

Al-Hilal vs Al-Khaleej match prediction 17 April 2025
Al-Hilal will be aiming for a win after failing to secure a victory in their last two league games. Hilal is inconsistent with their performance and this has taken a huge chunk on their possibility of finishing as Saudi Pro League champions this season. Khaleej on the other hand is also very inconsistent in their play with only a win in their last 10 league games and we doubt they can reimagine the first-leg results against Hilal at the kingdom arena on Thursday.
Our match prediction: is a total of over 9.5 corners for a coefficient of 1.71 in the 1xBet bookmaker.
Our betting tip on the match: is a victory for Hilal and a total of over 3.5 goals for a coefficient of 1.95 in the Betway bookmaker.
Lastly: A total of over 1.5 goals in the first half for 1.89 odds in the 1xBet bookmaker.
