Al Hilal's recent form has been somewhat inconsistent, with a draw against Al Ettifaq and a loss to Al Nassr preceding this victory. Their upcoming match is against Al Shabab, a team in good form with recent wins, suggesting a potentially challenging encounter for Al Hilal.
Al Khaleej's form has been poor, with a heavy defeat to Al Fateh just before this match. Their next game is against Al Ettifaq, who have been struggling for wins lately. Al Khaleej will need to improve significantly to get a positive result.
