To watch the Saudi Pro League in Pakistan, use Begin (begin.watch). The league's own "where to watch" page lists Begin for Pakistan and Afghanistan. Al Nassr's next game, at home to Al Kholood, kicks off at 11:00 pm PKT on Thursday 29 October 2026.

Saudi Arabia is two hours behind Pakistan all year, so most league games start between 6:30 pm and 11:00 pm PKT, a friendly slot for fans here. Below are the next two matchdays in Pakistan time, the table, how to set up Begin, and the fixes for a stream that will not load. We read the league's own pages and match data on 27 October 2026.

Begin is the Saudi Pro League broadcaster for Pakistan

The Saudi Pro League's broadcaster page lists BEGIN, at begin.watch, for two countries: Pakistan and Afghanistan. India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal are covered by Fancode, and the Arab world by Thmanyah. No Pakistani TV channel is on the league's list.

The Gulf row matters for families. A relative working in Riyadh or Dubai needs Thmanyah, not Begin, because rights are sold by country. Begin also shows LaLiga and Serie A in Pakistan, as our report on how to watch LaLiga in Pakistan explains.

Al Nassr play Al Kholood at 11 pm PKT on 29 October

Al Nassr host Al Kholood on Thursday 29 October at 11:00 pm PKT, and Al Hilal host Al Fateh on Saturday 31 October at 11:00 pm PKT. Al Nassr then travel to Al Hazem on Friday 6 November at 7:55 pm PKT.

The league's data gives kick-offs in UTC, and we added five hours for Pakistan. Times can change at short notice, so check the app on match day.

Add two hours to Saudi time, all year round

Saudi Arabia is three hours ahead of UTC and Pakistan five, and neither country changes its clocks. So a 9:00 pm kick-off in Riyadh is always 11:00 pm in Karachi or Lahore. That rule holds for the whole season.

Saudi Pro League kick-off times in Pakistan: 4:30 pm Saudi is 6:30 pm PKT, 9 pm Saudi is 11 pm PKT

That is a big advantage over European football, whose late games run past midnight here. Even an 11 pm PKT kick-off ends at about 1 am.

Al Hilal lead Al Nassr by two points

After Matchday 11, Al Hilal top the table with 27 points from 10 games. Al Nassr have 25 from 10, level with Al Qadsiah, who have played one more. Al Ittihad have 23 and Al Ahli 21.

Al Nassr won 3-1 at Al Faisaly on 23 October. The league's own highlights page says Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 982nd career goal in that match. Al Hilal won 3-2 at Al Qadsiah the same night, and Al Ahli beat Al Khaleej 4-1.

Ronaldo's 30-day suspension from the Portuguese federation, covered in our report on Ronaldo's Portugal suspension, is a national team matter. He played for Al Nassr on 23 October.

How to watch the Saudi Pro League on Begin

The setup is the same as for any streaming app. It takes about five minutes on a phone.

  1. Install the Begin app from Google Play or the App Store, or open begin.watch in a browser.
  2. Sign up with your mobile number or email.
  3. Check the plans page shows the Saudi Pro League before you pay.
  4. Pay with a method the app offers and keep the receipt.
  5. Open the match a few minutes early and lower the quality if your connection drops.

We could not read a price on Begin's website, which shows its plans only inside the browser app. A developer reply on its Google Play listing in November 2025, read by our desk, said PKR 399 a month. Treat that as old and check the app. Begin's refund policy says paid plans are not refundable.

Fix a Saudi Pro League stream that will not play

When a match will not start, the cause is usually the plan, the app version, a VPN or the connection. Try these in order.

  • Confirm the plan is active and includes the Saudi Pro League.
  • Update the Begin app and restart your phone.
  • Turn off any VPN. A foreign location can block a Pakistan-only stream.
  • Switch from Wi-Fi to mobile data, or the other way, and lower the video quality.
  • Use the help option in the app and send your receipt.

Free "Al Nassr live" links on social media are not on the league's list. Many are pirated, and some lead to fake login pages that steal passwords. For other leagues, see our pages on watching the Premier League in Pakistan and the Bundesliga in Pakistan.

How we verified this

What we checked, where we read it, and what we could not confirm.

We read the Saudi Pro League's broadcaster page on 27 October 2026, where the BEGIN entry for Pakistan and Afghanistan was last updated on 27 July 2026. Fixtures, results and the table come from the league's own season data read the same day, and the Ronaldo goal from its Al Nassr page. PKT times are our conversion from UTC. Begin's website shows no prices outside its app, so the price is reported, not confirmed. We could not confirm whether the King's Cup is on Begin.
