Al-Nassr vs Al Akhdood Prediction and Betting Tips | November 24th 2023
Al-Nassr will host Al Akhdood at Al-Awwal Park on Friday in another round of the 2023-24 Saudi Professional League campaign.
The home side have enjoyed a strong league campaign so far and find themselves in the early stages of a title race with Al-Hilal. They beat Al-Wehda 3-1 in their last game with Alex Telles and Cristiano Ronaldo handing the Knights of Najd a three-goal lead before their opponents scored a late consolation goal.
Al-Nassr sit second in the league table with 31 points from 13 games. They are four points behind league leaders Al-Hilal and will be looking to reduce that gap this weekend.
Al Akhdood, meanwhile, have struggled for results this season and currently sit in the drop zone. They returned to winning ways crucially last time out with a 2-1 win over Al Hazem, with Cameroon international Leandre Tawamba scoring a goal in either half to hand Martin Sevela's men all three points.
The newly-promoted outfit sit 16th in the league standings with just 10 points picked up so far and will be hopeful of adding to that tally this Friday.
