Team Preview: Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia:
Fifa World Ranking: 67
Fixtures: Russia 6/14, Uruguay 6/20, Egypt 6/25
Key Player: Mohammad Al-Sahlawi
Coach: Juan Antonio Pizzi
Saudi Arabia will come into this world cup with really no clear expectations other than that they are happy to be here. In their first world cup since 2006 where they were knocked out in the group stage not winning a single match, really any improvement on that will be seen as success. The hopes of Saudi Arabia lay on their striker Mohammad Al-Sahlawi. The dynamic Al Nassr forward comes into this world cup scoring 16 goals in World Cup qualifying leading his team to Russia. Though this Saudi team doesn't have exactly high expectations they have drawn an easier group and could make some noise come June.
