Al Fateh vs Al Nassr Predictions and Free Betting Tips from expert tipsters when they go head-to-head in the Saudi Pro League on Friday, 25 August 2023.
Al Fateh are set to host Al Nassr at the Prince Abdullah bin Jalawi Stadium for their upcoming league fixture. Al Fateh enter the contest following a pair of strong performances. They sit fifth in the table after a 3-1 win over Al Akhdoud in their previous league match.
Their opponents, Al Nassr, come into the game with a stunning 4-2 victory over Shabab Al Ahli in the AFC Champions League Qualifiers after a couple of subpar results in the league.
The last time these two clubs met was in May. Al Nassr managed to deliver a 3-0 win that day.
Al Nassr are on a five-game unbeaten streak against this opposition. They have also won this fixture on three of those occasions.
We are counting on Al Nassr to pull off a win here. They are considered heavy favourites by the bookies, and given their strong performances last time out, we anticipate them to live up to the label.
Al Fateh has also recently displayed impressive play, although they have had trouble producing opportunities against opponents of this calibre. With only one victory and three defeats in their past seven competitive home matches, they have also struggled at home for a while.
Moreover, Al Nassr also has a fine h2h record in the recent history of this matchup.
We expect goals in this match. Al Fateh has scored four goals in their past two matches. Also, two of Al Nassr’s past three matches have ended with over 2.5 goals.
In addition, the last three h2h meetings between these two have had over 2.5 goals. By the looks of things, a high-scoring affair is expected this time out.
Neither of these two teams has had a solid defensive record in recent weeks. The hosts have failed to keep a clean sheet in both of their two league matches this season. While the visitors have conceded six goals in their past three matches.
Thus, the chances are quite high for goals to come from either end of the pitch.
The bookies have Al Nassr as the favourite, and backing them is a safe bet given Al Nassr’s strong performance in their last encounter leading up to the contest. They also have a great record against Al Fateh. Furthermore, Al Fateh has underperformed at home in recent matches.
A -1.0 Asian handicap on Al Nassr at 1.75 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.
Furthermore, the both teams to score odds of 1.72 look very attractive. Given both clubs’ poor defensive performances and recent goal participation at both ends of the game.
