Al Nassr vs Al Taawon prediction
Under the management of Stefano Pioli, Al Nassr, captained by Cristiano Ronaldo, come into this one on the back of a 9-0 demolition of Al Okhdood the other day with Sadio Mane notching four of his own. They had suffered back-to-back 3-2 defeats before that, first in the AFC Champions League against Kawasaki Frontale and then against Al Ittihad in the Pro League.
They now face an Al Taawon side that most recently suffered a 1-0 loss to Al Qadsiah last weekend due to a 61st minute own goal scored by Andrei Girotto. They are the perennial overachievers of the Saudi Pro League but the visitors have now managed just one win in their last six matches across all competitions.
Al Nassr appear in no mood to potentially let their top three spot in the Pro League slip and, with home advantage, will be expected to comfortably defeat an out of form Al Taawon side.
