Al Shabab vs Al Nassr prediction

After falling to a surprise defeat away to Al Qadsiah which opened the door for their title rivals to close in, Al Nassr cannot afford to slip up again as they head back on the road, this time against Al Shabab. The hosts are currently midtable and coming off the back of a 1-5 hammering at the hands of Al Taawoun, which broke a streak of three consecutive draws in the league. All of those draws saw Al Shabab concede at least once though and against a team of Al Nassr’s quality with Cristiano Ronaldo on the prowl, the home side’s backline could be in for a long 90 minutes.

Ronaldo has now racked up 25 goals in 27 league appearances this campaign and will as always be expected to play an important role for his side going forward. Al Nassr’s most recent victory over Al Ahli saw CR7 find the net and is favoured to do so again in this one, with the visitors worth backing to get back to winning ways.

Al Shabab vs Al Nassr tip: Cristiano Ronaldo to score anytime and Al Nassr to win
