The 2023-24 Saudi Pro League promises to be the most competitive in the league's history, with clubs recruiting heavily. Here’s the top six teams predicted to win the Saudi Pro League according to the latest betting odds.
Al-Ittihad | Odds: 2/1
Reigning champions Al-Ittihad are favourites to win the 2023-24 Saudi Pro League, will odds of 2/1.

Al-Hilal | Odds 11/4
Al-Hilal were third last season and have appointed former Benfica coach Jorge Jesus as they look to add to their record 18 Saudi titles. Ex-Wolves midfielder Reuben Neves is joined in the squad by former Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, formerly of Lazio.
Al-Shabab | Odds: 14/1
Al-Shabab were fourth last season but have been relatively low-key in terms of star signings, with Ever Banega, once of Valencia, their headline addition.
Al-Ahli | Odds: 16/1

What Can I Bet On?
Betting coverage of Saudi Pro League is similar to many top-level European leagues, given the amount new of interest in the leagues. That includes standard markets such as match result, but also more specialised markets including Bet Builders and player props.
Match result
Probably the most simple market to bet on. This is a prediction of the match result - which team will win or whether the match will end in a draw.
Correct score
This is a prediction of what the final score will be. Correct score tips are popular with fans as the odds of picking the exact score are often higher than the match result odds.
Both Teams To Score
Both teams to score - or BTTS - is a binary market where fans try to predict whether both teams will score - “yes” or “no”. This is a popular market among fans placing football accumulators.
Total Goals - Over/Under
A little bit like the BTTS markets, total goals is where fans choose how many goals there will be in a match - over or under a specified amount. For example, from 0.5 (one goal or more) to 4.5 (five goals or more). There are also markets for total first half goals and total second half goals.
Goalscorers
Simply, which player will score? Fans can chose first goalscorer, last goalscorer or to score at any time. On some matches it’s also possible to bet on the goalscorer specials such as to score a header, or to score from outside the box.
Cards And Corners
Increasingly popular are cards and corners markets. Fans can bet on how many corners or cards a team will get, totals for both teams or over-under a given number.
Stats Betting
Bet on stats such as number of passes or tackles made but a given player or shots on target. These are often popular options for fans who enjoy creating Bet Builders.
In-Play Betting

But perhaps what has been more surprising is the arrival of players at the peak of their career, such as Neves, 26, and 28-year-old Milinkovic-Savic.
