The final round of the 2025-26 Roshn Saudi League season has been set after the Saudi Pro League (SPL) announced the Matchweek 34 schedule on Wednesday.

The SPL confirmed that the scheduling of the final round, made through its Competitions Department, was determined following a comprehensive review of the league standings and competitive scenarios.

Fixtures will be played across two days – May 20-21 – with a focus on maintaining sporting integrity and competitive balance.

In line with the principle of fair competition, all matches that could impact the final league standings – including the title race, qualification for continental competitions, and relegation battle – will kick off simultaneously on Thursday, May 21.

Meanwhile, the fixtures between Al Khaleej and Al Ahli, and Al Najmah and Al Shabab, will take place on Wednesday, May 20, as the outcomes of those matches will not affect the final standings or decisive league positions.

Al Nassr hold a five-point advantage over Al Hilal at the summit – the latter have a game in hand – while Al Ittihad, Al Taawoun and Al Ettifaq are vying for a top-five finish that seals a place in next season’s Asian Champions League Elite.

Meanwhile, at the bottom, Damac and Al Riyadh are duking it out to avoid landing in the final remaining relegation spot. At present, they both have 26 points, with Damac 15th and Al Riyadh one position below.

The scheduling approach forms part of the SPL’s ongoing efforts to deliver a standout conclusion to the season, while ensuring the highest standards of sporting fairness and operational excellence.

The league reaffirmed its commitment to implementing best-in-class organisational practices that continue to strengthen the profile and competitiveness of the competition, and wished all clubs success in the final round of what has been an exceptional 2025-26 campaign.
