Al Hilal seek to match historic unbeaten run against Al Ahli | OneFootball

On Tuesday evening at Kingdom Arena, a Roshn League Clasico pits Al Hilal against Al Ahli. The hosts are one result from matching their longest unbeaten league run. The visitors seek a response after losing to Al Khaleej.

As reported by Goal.com, the occasion carries significance beyond the league table. The match is a rearranged third round fixture.

Al Hilal are 45 league games without defeat, a sequence of 33 wins and 12 draws. Avoiding defeat here would see them equal their longest run. They previously went 46 unbeaten between May 2023 and November 2024, winning 42 and drawing four.

Al Ahli, however, own the competition’s longest streak. They stayed unbeaten for 51 matches from January 2014 to February 2016, recording 33 wins and 18 draws, a benchmark that still stands.

In the early standings, Al Hilal sit second on nine points, behind Al Nassr on 12 from four matches. Al Ahli are seventh with six. The result could shape an already sharpening race at the top.

The stakes are simple. Either Al Hilal make it 46 and match their own record, or Al Ahli stop them before history is made.
