New world record holders and runaway Saudi Pro League leaders Al-Hilal can break their own record of 28 consecutive competitive wins when they welcome Damac to the Kingdom Arena on Saturday.
Jorge Jesus' side broke The New Saints' previous record of 27 straight wins as the Blue Waves defeated Al-Ittihad 2-0 in the AFC Champions League quarter-finals on Tuesday.
Damac will be looking to record consecutive wins for the first time in this calendar year following a 1-0 league win against Al-Wehda on March 7.

Team news & squads
Al-Hilal team news
Continuing without Neymar, who is ruled out for the rest of the season with a cruciate ligament tear, Jesus could name a similar line-up from the Al-Ittihad win.
However, Abdullah Al-Hamdan could replace Salman Al-Faraj in the XI after coming on as a second-half substitute for the latter the last time out.
Aleksandar Mitrovic is hot on the heels of Al-Nassr's Cristiano Ronaldo for the Golden Boot, as the Serbian would once again feature alongside Malcom and Salem Al-Dawsari in the attack.
Al-Hilal possible XI: Al-Owais; Abdulhamid, Koulibaly, Al-Bulaihi, Al-Shahrani; Milinkovic-Savic, Neves, Al-Hamdan; Malcom, Mitrovic, S. Al-Dawsari
| Position | Players |
|---|---|

Damac team news
Goalkeeper Moustapha Zeghba will be serving the second of his three-match suspension after being sent off against Al-Ettifaq earlier this month. So Abdulbasit Hawsawi should continue to deputise in goal.
Elsewhere, too, Damac boss Cosmin Contra is expected to stick to the side that defeated Al-Wehda in their previous game.
Abdulaziz Al-Shahrani would hence keep his place upfront.
Damac possible XI: Hawsawi; S. Al-Hawsawi, Al-Rashidi, Bedrane, Al-Anazi; Hamed, Antolic; Al-Zain, Stanciu, N'Koudou; A. Al-Shahrani
| Position | Players |
