Three Saudi Pro League matches rescheduled for logistical reasons

The Saudi Pro League rescheduled three matches in round nine for logistical reasons.

The changes affect Al Ahli, Al Nassr, Al Riyadh, Al Hilal, Al Ittihad and Al Shabab.

Al Riyadh-Hilal and Al Ittihad-Shabab will be played on December 19, 2026, instead of their originally scheduled date.

Al Ahli and Al Nassr will meet on March 6, 2027, about five months later than planned.

The league said it considered minimum rest periods between matches as well as operational and organizational needs.

The other round-nine matches keep their scheduled dates.

The league did not give further details about the logistical reasons for the changes.
