Simone Inzaghi, the head coach of Al-Hilal, has decided to field Brazilian Marcos Leonardo in the forward line during the match against Al-Taawoun, which is the rescheduled game from the tenth round of the Saudi Professional League.
The Italian coach decided to exclude Mohamed Kader Meti from the match squad, along with the Frenchman Karim Benzema due to injury, which increases Leonardo’s chances of starting after being included with the team delegation.
Leonardo had missed 6 previous matches for Al-Hilal following a dispute over his refusal to go out on loan to one of the major European clubs during the last winter transfer window, despite a preliminary agreement with the management.
The match is scheduled to take place at Wolves Park Stadium in Al-Qassim this Tuesday evening, where Al-Hilal aims to secure three new points in the race for the top spot.
