Friday 27-02-2026
The Italian coach Simone Inzaghi of Al-Hilal revealed his decision regarding compensating for the absence of the duo Hassan Tambakti and Hamad Al-Yami before the match against Al-Shabab, as part of the Saudi Roshn League competition.

Al-Hilal will face Al-Shabab on Friday evening as part of the 24th round of the Saudi Professional League, with the Blues aiming to continue putting pressure on the leading teams.

The Saudi newspaper "Al-Riyadiyah" reported that Ali Lajami will be in the starting lineup instead of Hassan Tambakti, who sustained a hamstring injury that sidelined him from the match against Al-Shabab.

Inzaghi is also leaning towards relying on Moteb Al-Harbi in the right-back position to compensate for the absence of Hamad Al-Yami, who is suffering from a knee injury ahead of this anticipated match.

The Al-Hilal coach is expected to finalize his selections during the technical meeting preceding the match, where he will make the final adjustments to the starting lineup.

The match between Al-Hilal and Al-Shabab will be held at "SHG Arena" at 10:00 PM Saudi time. Al-Hilal is in third place with 55 points, while Al-Shabab is in twelfth place with 25 points after 23 rounds.
