Al-Nassr has become a world football sensation ever since they splashed the cash for Cristiano Ronaldo, and now are looking to add some more trophies to their cabinet.

 

Under 2.5 Goals

Al-Nassr has by far the best defense in Saudi Arabia Professional League with only six conceded goals in 14 matches that they've played. They are overall over/under stats that paint a picture of an equal value when it comes to both sides of the equation. They had seven games with more than two goals scored and the other way around. However, they did play four straight matches that were low-scoring affairs. Al-Fateh has the same stats. When it comes to their h2h matchup, from the last ten games, five went over the mark in question.

Both Teams to Score – Yes

Even though, as we mentioned in the first prediction, Al-Nassr has the best defense in the league, there is usual goal-scoring on both sides when it comes to the matches that these teams played against each other. Four out of their past five encounters covered both teams' scoring options. For obvious reasons, their defending, Al-Nassr didn't have too many BTTS games this season, but their last match covered that possibility when they lost to Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Arabia Super Cup match. Al-Fateh had three BTTS games in their last six matches. Somehow, their stats show that they go over that mark in every other game they play.

Al-Fateh only played its first season in the Saudi Arabia Pro league 14 years ago when they were led by Tunisian coach Fathi Al-Jabal. They won the title out of nowhere, and to this day it is considered to be the greatest shock in their country's football history, also it was the first time that a team outside of Riyadh and Jeddah, two of the most familiar Saudi Arabia cities, won the title. Al-Fateh arrives from the city called Al-Mubarazz. Last season they finished eighth and changed their coach. Former Greek footballer Georgios Donis who already had previous experience managing teams in Saudi Arabia, arrived to try and secure another title. However, they are sixth at the moment with 12 points disadvantage behind leaders Al-Nassr, their next opponent. Al-Fateh is one of only two teams that haven't played a draw after 14 rounds of matches.

Al-Nassr

A team from the capital city of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh is one of the most decorated clubs in the country's history. They won the Pro League title on nine occasions which is the second-highest mark in Saudi Arabia football league history behind Al-Hilal who won it 18 times, and is the current champion. Al-Nassr won their last title four years ago, but have now given the biggest contract in football history to 37-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo who was immediately promoted as the team's captain without playing a single game for the club. Ronaldo made his debut a few weeks ago but is still waiting for his first goal for the club. Al-Nassr leads the league at the moment with a one-point advantage over the biggest club in the country, Al-Hilal, but with a game in hand. Al-Nassr has nine foreign players on the roster and their current top scorer is Brazilian striker Talisca.

Possible lineup: Rossi, Al Ghannam, Al Amri, Madu, Lajami, Luiz Gustavo, Al Khaibari, Martinez, Talisca, Al Najei, Ronaldo.
