Team Preview
Al-Nassr’s Performance
Al-Nassr continued their impressive form with a dramatic 3-2 win over Al-Ahli despite being reduced to ten men early in the second half and suffering multiple injuries. The team currently sits in third place, just eight points off the top, having won six and drawn one of their last seven league matches in 2025.
Stefano Pioli’s side could close the gap to five points should second-placed Al-Hilal defeat league leaders Al-Ittihad later this weekend.
Al-Ettifaq’s Performance
Al-Ettifaq have struggled for consistency in 2025, winning only three of their nine matches across all competitions. Their recent 2-1 home defeat against bottom-placed Al-Fateh marked their ninth league loss of the season. Currently 19 points behind Al-Nassr, the visitors must secure results soon to avoid slipping into a relegation battle.

Match Prediction
Al-Nassr enter the match as strong favorites given their superior squad quality and both offensive and defensive records. However, they must remain focused to secure all three points.
Al-Ettifaq will rely on their away form but face a difficult task against a much stronger opponent. A competitive match is expected, but Al-Nassr should come out on top.
