The 2018–19 Saudi Professional League was the 43rd edition of the Saudi Professional League, the top Saudi professional league for association football clubs, since its establishment in 1975. The season started on 30 August 2018 and concluded on 16 May 2019.[4]
Al-Hilal were the defending champions after winning the Pro League last season for the 15th time. Al-Wehda and Al-Hazem have entered as the promoted teams from the 2017–18 Prince Mohammad bin Salman League. Al-Nassr were crowned as league winners for the 8th time on 16 May, after defeating Al-Batin 2–1 on the final day of the season.[5]
Ohod were the first team to be relegated after a 3–1 defeat to Al-Fayha FC on 12 April 2019.[6] Al-Batin were the second team to be relegated following their 1–0 defeat to an already relegated Ohod.[7] Al-Qadsiah were the third and final team to be relegated after a draw against Al-Hazem on the final day of the season.[8]
Abderrazak Hamdallah from Al-Nassr was the top scorer with 34 goals, and was also named Player of the Season.[9] Pedro Emanuel of Al-Taawoun won the Manager of the Season award.[10]
Changes
[edit]On 7 March 2018, the Saudi FF announced that the league would be increased from 14 teams to 16 teams.[11] They also announced new rules limiting the club's squad size to 28 players.[12]
Teams
[edit]Sixteen teams competed in the league – the top twelve teams from the previous season, the two play-off winners and two teams promoted from the 2017–18 Prince Mohammad bin Salman League.
Teams who were promoted to the Pro League
The first club to be promoted was Al-Wehda, following their 2–2 draw away to Al-Mujazzal on 11 April 2018. Al-Wehda will play in the top flight of Saudi football after a season absence.[13] They were crowned champions on 18 April 2018 after beating Al-Khaleej 1–0 at home.[14]
The second club to be promoted was Al-Hazem, following their 4–1 win at home against Al-Mujazzal on 18 April 2017, coupled with Al-Tai's defeat against Hajer. Al-Hazem will play in the top flight of Saudi football for the first time since 2010–11.[15]
Teams who were relegated to the MS League
No teams were relegated to the Prince Mohammad bin Salman League. Due to an increase in the number of teams, the Saudi FF announced that the relegation was canceled and in its place was a relegation play-off.[11] Both Pro League teams, Al-Raed and Ohod, won the playoffs and secured their top-flight status.

Positions by round
[edit]The following table lists the positions of teams after each week of matches. In order to preserve the chronological evolution, any postponed matches are not included to the round at which they were originally scheduled but added to the full round they were played immediately afterward. If a club from the Saudi Professional League wins the King Cup, they will qualify for the AFC Champions League, unless they have already qualified for it through their league position. In this case, an additional AFC Champions League group stage berth will be given to the 3rd placed team, and the AFC Champions League play-off round spot will be given to 4th.
