Notes

Bono (5m) is set as the main GK, ranking fifth for saves last season and now playing under Inzaghi at Al-Hilal.
Zaid (4m) provides bench cover after starting 35/35 games last season with a 69% save rate.
Defence is built on premium nailed options: Ibanez, Hoedt, and either T. Hernandez or Cancelo, all offering strong attacking threat. Madu (4.5m) stands out under the new rules with reliable recoveries, while Al-Bawardi (4m) is the budget option.
In midfield, Savic, Millot, and Sbaï are locked. Savic is on set pieces and has shown strong pre-season form. Millot (6m), a new signing, arrives with an impressive record in Bundesliga Fantasy.
Batna (7.5m) remains under consideration, with Maolida (7m) and Felix (7.5m) as possible alternatives.
A. Noor (5m) fills the budget slot, though this position, may change once more nailed 5.0–5.5m options emerge.
The forward line features Ronaldo and Benzema, supported by favourable early fixtures for Al-Nassr and improved pre-season form under the new manager.
Camara (5m) completes the trio as a short-term enabler, subject to rotation for another cheap nailed forward in later rounds. Selections are made on the basis of pre-season performances, new signings, and 24/25 season data, with a focus on nailed players and minimising punts early on.

Notes

I’ve tried to make a well balanced team, saving transfers (up to five, the same as FPL) finding value picks from all of the “stronger sides” in the SPL.
Ronaldo is expensive but has proven value for money in his time in Saudi Arabia. It’s easier to start with him and downgrade rather than avoid. You can still demonstrate a strong draft with Ronaldo- hopefully mine is a good example!
Hamdallah is my GW1 captain as Al Shabab face a newly promoted side at home and Hamdallah has proved to be a reliable assets throughout the years in the SPL.

Notes

Borjan is the best 4.5m GK in my opinion.
Theo (Due to the high EO of Al Hilal defence > 100% ).
Mitaj: the most attacking defender in El Ettihad.
Al Shwirekh: He has has the best fixtures among all teams, although Hoedt is much more dangerous in set pieces but for 1m more than Al Shwirekh.
Coman: very easy fixtures for the Al Nasser attack and he also to covers the high EO of J. Felix and CR7.
Quinones: He was one of the best players last season and has easy fixture at the start of the season against Najma, a newly promoted team.
Podence: As I Said Al Shabab has the best fixtures, but I think Carrasco is better than him but for more 0.5m.
