If Cristiano Ronaldo doesn't get you, Anderson Talisca will! Saudi Pro League winners and losers as CR7's partner in crime at Al-Nassr fires again - but things are getting no better for Karim Benzema and Al-Ittihad

In terms of sport in Saudi Arabia this week, most eyes were focused on the heavyweight bout between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou in Riyadh. But while 'The Battle of the Baddest' supplied plenty of drama, the action in the Saudi Pro League also provided a lot to get excited about.

Al-Hilal moved four points clear at the top of the table with a 3-1 win over Al-Ahli in the game of the week as the most successful club in Saudi history continue to thrive, even with Neymar having been ruled out for the forseeable future.

Their closest challengers are now Al-Nassr, as Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. again impressed with their own 3-1 victory over Al-Feiha on Saturday, moving them ahead of surprise package Al-Taawoun.
