Al-Nassr vs Al-Fayha Prediction and Betting Tips | February 7th 2025
Al-Nassr will host Al-Fayha at Al-Awwal Park on Friday in another round of the 2024-25 Saudi Professional League campaign. The hosts will hope to continue their recent run of form and remain title contenders in the second half of the season.
Al-Nassr picked up a 2-1 win against Al-Raed in the last round to mark their fourth win in their last five league games. The hosts, who have yet to lose a game since the start of the year, are currently sat in third place in the league, eight points behind Al-Ittihad and Al-Hilal. They will be keen to close the gap in the coming weeks.
Al-Fayha’s goalless draw against Al-Taawoun last weekend means the visitors have won only two of their last 13 league matches running back to October 2024. Friday's away team have won only three of their 18 games in the Saudi Pro League this season and are only two points off the relegation zone, meaning failure to pick up a point this weekend could see them land in the relegation zone by the end of this matchday.

Al-Nassr vs Al-Fayha Prediction
Al-Nassr are strong favorites going into Friday's matchup and will be confident to continue their good form when they host a side with much less quality.
Al-Fayha will need a herculean effort to come away with a point on Friday as their abysmal attack goes up against one of the league's better defenses. However, they have one of the worst away records in the Pro League this season and could lose this one.
Prediction: Al-Nassr 3-1 Al-Fayha
