Al-Ahli Jeddah faces a crucial match against Al-Arabi at 7 PM today, Sunday, at King Abdullah Sports City Stadium, marking the start of their journey in the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup. The team aims to continue its impressive results after a strong start this season.

After winning the Saudi Super Cup against Al-Nassr and opening the league with a narrow 1-0 victory over Neom, Al-Ahli enters the match with ambitions to maintain their winning streak and secure a spot in the round of 16. The team relies on its technical stability and standout players to deliver a strong performance worthy of the Asian champion title.

Al-Arabi understands the difficulty of facing a star-studded team like Al-Ahli Jeddah but hopes to take advantage of the cup atmosphere, which often brings surprises. The team is motivated to achieve a historic victory that would advance them to the later stages and give them a significant morale boost.

The match will be broadcast live on Thmanyah 1 channel, giving fans of both teams the chance to watch the highly anticipated game directly from King Abdullah Sports City.

Al-Ahli Jeddah holds 5 titles in the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup, won in the seasons 1974, 1976, 1984, 2014, and 2017, and hopes to add another title this year.

The match was originally scheduled for September 21 but was moved up to August 31 by the Saudi Football Federation due to Al-Ahli’s participation in the Confederations Cup, where they will face the winner of the Egyptian Pyramids and New Zealand’s Auckland City on September 23 in Jeddah for the Asia-Africa-Central America Cup title.
