Venue

[edit]

The Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Sports City was announced as the venue of the final on 4 July 2024.[5] This was the first time the tournament was hosted in Abha.

The Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Sports City was built and opened in 1984.[6] The stadium was used as a venue for the 2022 Arab Cup U-20 and the 2023 Arab Club Champions Cup, and the 2019 AFC Asian Cup. It is used by Abha and Damac as a home stadium.

Background

[edit]

As part of the running sponsorship deal between the Saudi Arabian Football Federation (SAFF) and the Diriyah company, the match was officially referred to as "The Diriyah Saudi Super Cup".[7]

This will be Al-Nassr's fifth appearance in the final. Al-Nassr lost the 2014 and 2015 finals to Al-Shabab and Al-Hilal respectively and won the 2019 and 2020 finals against Al-Taawoun and Al-Hilal. Al-Nassr qualified by defeating Al-Taawoun 2–0 in the semi-finals.[8]

Al-Hilal will be making their seventh finals appearance, the most by any club. They won the title four times, in 2015, 2018, 2021, and 2023. Al-Hilal qualified after defeating Al-Ahli in a penalty shoot-out after a 1–1 draw in the semi-finals.[9]

This will be the fourth meeting between these two sides in the Saudi Super Cup and the sixteenth meeting in a cup final. Al-Hilal previously defeated Al-Nassr 1–0 in the 2015 final and 2–1 in the 2023 semi-final. Al-Nassr defeated Al-Hilal 3–0 in the 2020 final. In the fifteen previous cup final meetings, Al-Nassr won eight times, while Al-Hilal won seven times. This will be the 185th competitive meeting between the two sides in all competitions. In the clubs' 184 previous meetings, Al-Hilal won 72, Al-Nassr won 59 and the remaining 53 were drawn.[10]
