The 2015–16 Saudi Professional League - officially known as the Abdul Latif Jameel League, because of its sponsorship - was the 40th season of the Saudi Professional League, since its inception in 1976.
Al-Nassr were once again the defending champions for this season, having won the previous two editions in 2013–14 and 2014–15, their 7th title in total.[7] The League comprised 14 teams, 12 from the 2014–15 campaign and two new teams promoted from the 2014–15 First Division, champions Al-Qadisiyah and Al-Wehda who replaced relegated Al-Orobah and Al-Shoulla. The League started on 19 August 2015 and concluded on 14 May 2016.
On 24 April 2016, Al-Ahli won the league title after defeating Al-Hilal 3–1 in a home match. It was their first title since 1984 and their third overall.[8] Al-Ahli, Al-Hilal and Al-Taawoun all secured a berth for the 2017 AFC Champions League via league position. At the bottom, Najran and Hajer were relegated to the First Division.
Teams
First Division champions Al-Qadisiyah return for the first time since being relegated in the 2011–12 campaign and were joined by Al-Wehda who return after relegation in 2012–13 campaign. They replaced relegated sides Al-Orobah and Al-Shoulla. This brings top flight football back to Makkah and Khobar.

Notes:
- 1 2 3 4 Since winners of the 2016 King Cup, Al-Ahli, qualified for AFC Champions League group stage based on their league position, the spot awarded to the cup winner (2017 AFC Champions League group stage) is passed to the third-placed team and the spot for the third-placed team (AFC Champions League play-off round) is passed to the fourth-placed team.
- ↑ Al-Ittihad did not obtain an AFC license. Therefore, even if they earn the right to play in Asian competitions based on league position, they will not be able to participate.[43]
- ↑ Al-Nassr earned a place in the Arab Club Championship by virtue of being the 2016 King Cup runners-up.
Positions by round
The following table lists the positions of teams after each week of matches. In order to preserve the chronological evolution, any postponed matches are not included to the round at which they were originally scheduled, but added to the full round they were played immediately afterwards. If a club from the Saudi Professional League wins the King Cup, they will qualify for the AFC Champions League, unless they have already qualified for it through their league position. In this case, an additional AFC Champions League group stage berth will be given to the 3rd placed team, and the AFC Champions League play-off round spot will be given to 4th.
