Tonight, the Semi-Finals of the King Salman Arab Club Cup will take place. Three Saudi teams advance to the semi-finals, while the fourth is an Iraqi one.

All African teams were eliminated from the Group Stage, including Al Zamalek, except Al Raja that advanced to the round of 8.

Tonight, Al Hilal, Al Zaaem, will collide with the Saudi Al Shabab, while Al Nassr, Al Alami, will face the Iraqi Al Shorta.

Al Zaaem advanced to the semi-finals after defeating Karim Benzema's Ittihad Jeddah, Al Ameed and the holders of the Saudi Pro League title, 3-1.

Meanwhile, Al Shabab reached the semi-finals after knocking the Emarati Al Wehda out. Al Shabab and Al Wehda's game was stretched by their efforts to advance to the final four, and the game rang the bell of the penalties. They ended 5-4 for the Saudis.

On the other hand, Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr, the runners-up of the Saudi Pro League, will face the Iraqi Shorta to book a ticket to the final.

Al Nassr advanced to the final-four round after defeating the Moroccan Al Raja 3-1.

Meanwhile, Al Shorta reached the semi-finals after thrashing the Qatari Al Sadd 4-2.
