Al Fateh will face off against Al Nassr in a highly anticipated Saudi Pro League match on Friday, August 25. Both teams have had contrasting starts to their season, with Al Fateh unbeaten in their first two matches and Al Nassr yet to secure a victory.

Al Fateh kicked off their campaign with a 1-1 draw against Al Taawoun, followed by a convincing 3-1 win over Al Akhdoud. The team currently sits in fifth place in the league standings and will be looking to continue their winning momentum.

However, Al Nassr has struggled in their opening fixtures, suffering two defeats in a row. Their most recent loss was a 2-0 defeat to Taawoun. They find themselves languishing in 15th place in the league table and will be eager to turn their form around.

The head-to-head record between the two teams heavily favors Al Nassr, who have won 18 out of their 31 meetings since 2009. Al Fateh has only managed to secure one win in their last 14 encounters with Al Nassr.

It remains to be seen if Al Fateh can maintain their unbeaten start to the season or if Al Nassr will bounce back and secure their first win. The match promises to be an exciting and closely contested affair.

Manchester City secured a 2-1 victory against Sheffield United on Sunday, with Rodri scoring a late winner in the 88th minute. This win places City at the top of the Premier League table, having won all three matches played so far this season. Despite missing a first-half penalty, Erling Haaland redeemed himself by opening the scoring in the second half with a close-range header. However, Sheffield United equalized in the 85th minute, taking advantage of a defensive error from Kyle Walker. City quickly regained their lead though, as Rodri powered a half-volley into the top corner.

Under the guidance of assistant manager Juanma Lillo, who was standing in for Pep Guardiola following his back surgery, Manchester City demonstrated their ability to win even without their full capabilities on display. With a squad that has seemingly strengthened despite some key departures, City showcased their dominance and continued their perfect start to the season. They now sit at the top of the table with nine points, two points ahead of West Ham United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Arsenal.

City's convincing performance against Sheffield United raises the question: Can they maintain their flawless record in the coming matches? Only time will tell if Manchester City can continue their winning streak and assert themselves as the team to beat in the Premier League.

Eden Hazard's future has been the subject of much speculation since leaving Real Madrid at the end of last season. The former Chelsea star has been without a club and has reportedly rejected offers from six teams, according to his barber. Despite trolls suggesting that no club wants to sign him, Hazard's barber took to Instagram to set the record straight. The 32-year-old has been linked with a move to the MLS, with the Vancouver Whitecaps said to be in the race for his signature. Several Brazilian and Saudi Pro League sides have also shown interest in signing the Belgian winger. Hazard, who has struggled with injuries in recent years, has even considered retiring if a suitable club doesn't come forward before the end of the transfer window. However, he remains hopeful that he can still contribute to a top European team and prove his worth on the pitch. Only time will tell where Hazard will end up before the window shuts.
