Qualification
The competition features four teams from the 2025–26 Saudi football season. The qualification system is based on the results of the 2025–26 Saudi Pro League and the 2025–26 King's Cup.
Al-Nassr qualified as the 2025–26 Saudi Pro League champions. Al-Ahli qualified after finishing third in the league, while Al-Qadsiah qualified after finishing fourth. Al-Kholood entered the competition as runners-up of the 2025–26 King's Cup.
