Great game we're going to have in this edition of the Asian Champions League. We'll have two teams from Saudi Arabia, both capable of winning the competition. Both teams played last Friday, and the home team won 3-1. The game will be different because it's two-legged and knockout, so Al Ittihad will adopt a more defensive posture. As i mentioned, this game will be different because in the Saudi League, more foreigners can be used than in this competition. Jorge Jesus and Marcelo Gallardo will have to manage which foreigners to field. Jorge Jesus's team started the last game losing to Al Ittihad but ended up winning 3-1, marking their 25th consecutive victory, equaling Ajax's 1955 record. They are now chasing the world record of 27 consecutive wins held by The New Saints. For this game, Jorge Jesus will have Mitrovic back from suspension, who has been the top scorer. On Al Ittihad's side, Benzema will return after serving his suspension.

Last season, Al Ittihad won the Saudi Championship but has been performing poorly this season due to internal issues, even with Marcelo Gallardo taking over. Their hopes lie in winning this competition.

Al Hilal is the best team in Saudi Arabia, having made a significant investment in their squad. Despite Neymar's injury, they are performing well, with some even arguing they play better without him. Al Hilal plays an offensive style, pressuring opponents, especially at home.

Al Ittihad has quality players like Benzema, Fabinho, and Kante but struggles against stronger teams due to defensive weaknesses. The last game highlighted defensive frailties, with Al Hilal's forwards exploiting them for victory. While the game may be balanced at times, the home team is expected to dominate.

Al Ittihad will focus on defending well to keep hopes alive for the second leg. With their confidence high, Al Hilal aims for their 26th consecutive win and likely victory if they maintain their recent form.

我们将在这届亚冠联赛中迎来一场精彩的比赛。我们将有两支来自沙特阿拉伯的球队，他们都有能力赢得比赛。两队上周五比赛，主队以3比1获胜。这场比赛将是两回合淘汰赛，因此伊蒂哈德将采取更加防守的姿态。正如我提到的，这场比赛将会有所不同，因为在沙特联赛中，可以使用更多的外国人。豪尔赫·热苏斯和马塞洛·加拉多将不得不安排哪些外国人上场。豪尔赫·热苏斯的球队在上一场比赛开始时输给了伊蒂哈德，但最终以3-1获胜，这是他们连续25场胜利，追平了阿贾克斯1955年的纪录。他们现在正在追逐由新圣徒队保持的27连胜的世界纪录。在这场比赛中，豪尔赫·热苏斯将让停赛的米特罗维奇复出，他一直是进球最多的球员。在伊蒂哈德方面，本泽马将在停赛后回归。

上个赛季，阿尔·伊蒂哈德赢得了沙特锦标赛，但由于内部问题，本赛季表现不佳，即使马塞洛·加拉多接任。他们的希望在于赢得这场比赛。

阿尔希拉尔是沙特阿拉伯最好的球队，他们在球队上投入了大量资金。尽管内马尔受伤了，但他们表现得很好，有些人甚至认为没有他他们踢得更好。阿尔希拉尔打进攻风格，压力对手，特别是在主场。

伊蒂哈德拥有像本泽马、法比尼奥和坎特这样的优秀球员，但由于防守薄弱，在面对强队时表现不佳。上一场比赛突出了防守的弱点，阿尔希拉尔的前锋利用了这些弱点取得了胜利。虽然比赛有时可能是平衡的，但主队有望占据主导地位。

阿尔伊蒂哈德将专注于防守，以保持第二回合的希望。他们的信心很高，阿尔希拉尔的目标是26连胜，如果他们保持最近的状态，很有可能获胜。
