Al Ittihad vs Al Nassr prediction
Al Ittihad are seeking to re-establish themselves as a force in Saudi Arabian football. They have been unconvincing at the start of this season but are grinding out results and most recently shared a goalless draw with Al Fateh last weekend.
Ange Postecoglou has taken charge of defending champions Al Nassr, captained by Cristiano Ronaldo, and they have started with five successive defeats – albeit their last two victories have been a touch unconvincing against Al Ettifaq and Al Taawon.
Al Nassr do have to remain the favourites for this one but their performance level has dipped and so Al Ittihad should have opportunity to exploit that at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium.
