Neymar Jr. has made his official debut with Al-Hilal in the Saudi Pro League, winning against Al Riyadh 6-1 in the sixth week of the tournament. The Brazilian striker contributed to the team’s win with an assist to score the third goal of the match.

Al-Hilal has a new appointment tomorrow Monday 18th in the AFC Champions League where they will be facing Navbahor Namangan, a B class team that should not represent big trouble for Neymar’s Al-Hilal that have linked three consecutive wins in the Saudi Pro League.

Al-Hilal has already won the AFC Champions League four times and will seek to add a fifth title to their collection now that they have a fully reinforced team with additions like Neymar Jr., Aleksandar Mitrovic, Ruben Neves, Sergej Milinkovic Savic, Malcom, Yassine Bounou and Kalidou Koulibaly.

If you wish to see Al-Hilal debut in the AFC Champions League against Navbahor Namangan, you can watch it via streaming service through Paramount+ on Monday September 18th at 2:00 pm ET.

Now that Neymar has debuted, a big question is if he will be starting against Navbahor Namangan. Ney recently became Brazil's top scorer and it's not impossible that he gets his first full start on Monday.

Possible Al-Hilal’s XI: Bono; Al Shahrani, Al Bulayhi, Jahfali, Abdulhamid; Neves, Kanno; Al Dawsari, Malcolm, Neymar; Mitrovic.

On the other hand, the ones to watch out for in Samvel Babayan's side will be Milos Milovic star from Montenegro’s National Team, Luka Cermelj, Filip Ivanovic and Jovan Dokic as well as Georgian Toma Tabatadze. Utkir Yusupov, Oston Urunov, Jamshid Iskanderov and Abror Ismoilov are all from Uzbekistan’s National Team who recently tied against Mexico 's National Team.

Possible Navbahor’s XI: Yusupov; Golban, Khashimov, Milovic, Yoldoshev, Iskanderov, Dokic, Boltaboev, O'runov, Abdukholikov, Tabatadze.
