Meanwhile, following a lengthy break, Al-Hilal Saudi will now begin preparations for their return to competitive football.
Ramon Diaz’s side were last in action on October 15, when they claimed a 1-0 victory over Al Tai to snap their three-match winless run. Al-Hilal are fourth in the Saudi Professional League, having claimed 17 points from eight rounds of games.
Cooling off. 💧

Meanwhile, Newcastle have also begun their preparations for a return to Premier League action after a stellar first half of the season. The Magpies sit third in the English top flight, one point above fourth-placed Tottenham, who have picked up 29 points after 15 games.
That has been owing to their impressive display at the defensive end of the pitch, where Eddie Howe’s side boast the league’s joint-best record, with 11 goals conceded. Newcastle are on a six-match winning streak, including a penalty shootout win over Crystal Palace in the FA Cup third round on November 9.
