Damac vs Al Nassr Prediction and Betting Tips - Cristiano Ronaldo to continue his rich form | February 25th 2023

Damac will entertain second-placed Al Nassr at the Prince Sultan bin Abdul Aziz Stadium in the Saudi Pro League on Saturday.

The hosts are winless in their last three league outings and suffered a 2-0 away defeat against Al Khaleej last Saturday. They have just one win to their name since October and are in seventh place in the league table with 22 points to their name. They trail sixth-placed Al Fateh by six points and will need to return to winning ways.

Al Nassr made it two wins in a row as they defeated Al Taawooun 2-1 at home last week. Cristiano Ronaldo was not on the scoresheet but picked up an assist. Al Nassr have the opportunity to open up a two-point lead at the top as Al Ittihad dropped points in their league game on Friday.

A rich history is celebrated during this matchweek 18, dedicated to Founding Day 🇸🇦

Damac vs Al Nassr Prediction

Faris Al-Janub have suffered four defeats in their six games in 2023 and might struggle in this match. Just one of their five defeats this season have come at home and they will be looking to produce a solid display.

Preparations continue 💪

Al Nassr are on a three-game winning run against the hosts and will be hoping that Ronaldo continues his rich form. The league's top-scorer Talisca will be unavailable for the game on account of a hamstring injury but that should not impact Al Nassr's performance and we expect them to eke out a narrow win.

Prediction: Damac 1-2 Al Nassr
