The sixth round of the Saudi Pro League saw clear changes in the title race, as Al-Hilal maintained its lead on goal difference, tied with Al-Nassr and Al Qadisiyah, each with 15 points.

The round concluded with significant victories for Al Nassr and Al Qadsiah, while Al Hilal fell to Neom, and Al Ittihad continued to collect points, intensifying the competition early in the Saudi Pro League.

Al-Nassr secured a 2-1 victory over Abha, continuing their scoring streak to 93 consecutive matches in the Saudi Pro League. They are closing in on achieving a new global milestone.

Al-Hilal's unbeaten run has reached 521 days, with the team achieving 35 victories and 12 draws, before Neom managed to halt this streak in the sixth round.

The defeat against Neom was the first for Italian coach Simone Inzaghi since taking charge of Al-Hilal in the summer of 2025, where the coach urged his team to learn from the outcome of the match.

Al Qadsiah caught the eye after beating Al Ahli 3-2 in Dammam, in front of more than 11,000 spectators, confirming their ability to compete with the top clubs.

Brendan Rodgers, the head coach of Al-Qadisiyah, described his team's performance against Al-Ahli as 'great', affirming that his players deserved to earn the three points.

Al-Ittihad secured three points after defeating Al-Fayha 2-1 in Jeddah, in a match that saw German coach Jens Wissing continue to rely on a rotation policy for the team.

Al-Ittihad secured a victory in front of over 17,000 spectators, continuing to collect points despite the pressure of matches and the tight schedule during this period.

At the end of the sixth round, Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr, and Al-Qadisiyah remain at the top of the Saudi Pro League with 15 points, while Al-Hilal's fall and the victory of their rivals added extra excitement to the title race.
