Al-Ittihad will face Al-Taawoun in the 2023-24 Saudi Pro League at the Prince Abdullah Al-Faisal Stadium in Jeddah on Saturday evening. Al-Ittihad, showcasing a formidable lineup this season, has further strengthened their squad with additions like Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kanté from the previous season. Their last season was outstanding, having clinched the title for the ninth time. These new acquisitions from Europe will surely bolster Al-Ittihad’s chances.
Meanwhile, Al-Taawoun managed to pull off a 1-0 victory in their inaugural game of the season against Damak, thanks to a lone goal by Abdulaziz Al-Harabi in the 79th minute. Al-Taawoun’s performance in the 2022-23 season was below par, finishing in the ninth position. They’ll be eager to correct their past mistakes and improve their performance this season.
