The confrontation between Al-Ittihad and Al-Hilal is considered an early final, especially in light of the presence of the big names that each team attracted during the summer Mercato, which means that each party will enter a different squad than the last match they gathered in the league championship last May, which ended in a 2-2 draw.
Al-Ittihad against Al-Hilal
Al-Ittihad qualified for this role with a full score, after achieving three consecutive victories through which it topped the first group, and it was at the expense of Tunisian Esperance Sports Club 2-1, Tunisian Sfaxien 1-0, and Iraqi Police 2-1.
While Al-Hilal qualified with great difficulty after finishing runner-up in the second group with 4 points, as it tied negatively with Al-Ahly Tripoli of Libya, then lost to the Qatari Al-Sadd 2-3, before defeating Moroccan Wydad 2-1.
