Al Ahli SC vs Al Nassr Prediction & Betting Tips (15 March)

It's the shock of the 24th day of the Saudi Pro League. Two teams on the podium of the Saudi championship will face each other this Friday, from 8:00 p.m. Al Ahli SC is currently in 3rd place in the rankings. He has also remained in good shape lately. Matthias Jaissle's team has just taken 7 points in its last 3 days. It remains in particular with a success on the pitch of Al-Taawon 0-1. Riyad Mahrez's teammates were able to come back to just 6 lengths behind Al-Nassr, their next opponent in the Saudi Pro League.

Long in the race for the coronation, Al-Nassr seems to have given up. Now, he is almost 12 points behind the leader: Al-Hilal. It must be said that Luis Castro's men have only taken one point in their last two championship matches. After a draw against Al-Hazem 4-4, they were beaten against Al Raed 1-3. To make matters worse, Cristiano Ronaldo's teammates have just been knocked out in the quarter-finals of the AFC Champions League, against Al-Ain. They fell on penalties last Monday on their lawn. It's hard to imagine them reassuring themselves against another big name in the Saudi championship.

Al Ahli SC are currently on a run of 11 consecutive top-flight fixtures in which they have both scored and conceded during the same 90 minutes, so consistency has certainly not been lacking on this particular front. This has also been the case in five of the previous six Al Nassr matches at this level, meaning that clean sheets are likely to prove hard to come by.
