In the second round, Al-Hilal secured a 3-0 victory over Al-Fayha, maintaining their position at the top of the league standings. By the fifth round, Al-Ahli achieved a 5-0 win against Al-Riyadh, with manager Marino Busic praising the team’s defensive organization. Al-Hilal also maintained a perfect start to the season by defeating Al-Shabab, reaching 15 points through five consecutive wins. Al-Hilal manager Simone Inzaghi noted the need to “strengthen the center-back position” due to injuries to Ali Lajami. In a high-profile matchup in Jeddah, Al-Ittihad defeated Al-Nassr 2-1 at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium. George Ilenikhena scored both goals for Al-Ittihad in the 4th and 22nd minutes, while Angelo Gabriel scored for Al-Nassr in the 36th minute following an assist from Cristiano Ronaldo. This result marked the first league defeat of the season for Al-Nassr, managed by Ange Postecoglou, leaving them in second place, three points behind Al-Hilal. The match was marked by significant controversy, including Al-Ittihad supporters chanting Lionel Messi’s name toward Ronaldo and Al-Ittihad’s social media accounts mocking Ronaldo with the caption, “Cheating and still losing!” after he was filmed attempting to read a tactical note intended for defender Danilo Pereira. Portuguese player João Félix expressed dissatisfaction with the outcome, stating, “I won’t speak to you, because if I do, I’ll expose this league.” Al-Hilal’s perfect start to the season and their 47-match unbeaten streak ended on September 7, 2026, when Neom SC secured a 2-0 victory. Despite a lineup featuring Yassine Bounou, Rúben Neves, and Sergej Milinković-Savić, Al-Hilal could not recover.
