The 48th edition of the Saudi Pro League, running from August 11, 2023, to May 27, 2024, promises intense competition among eight teams, each playing 34 matches. Last season’s runners-up, Al-Nassr, boast the presence of Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane, while their rival Al Hilal SFC features the arrival of Neymar, who departed Paris St. Germain for this new challenge.
Defending champions Al-Ittihad have strengthened their squad with two French acquisitions – Ballon d’Or holder Karim Benzema from Real Madrid and defensive midfielder N’Golo Kante from Chelsea. The influx of top-notch talent further solidifies the league’s status as a magnet for global football stars.
Joining the ranks are Roberto Firmino, and Riyad Mahrez (Al Ahli) and many others, adding further excitement to the league. Despite the notable signings, Al Ahli faces the challenge of playing in the First Division League after being relegated.
As tradition dictates, the season’s end will see the three lowest-ranked teams relegated, while the top three teams from the second tier ascend to the Saudi Pro League.
For Indian enthusiasts, the action-packed Saudi Pro League can be enjoyed via live streaming on SonyLiv, ensuring a front-row seat to witness the spectacle. The broadcasts on Sony Sports Ten 1 SD and HD TV channels bring the thrill of the matches directly to the homes of football enthusiasts across India, making the Saudi Pro League 2023-24 a must-watch for fans of the beautiful game.
