It's the Riyadh derby this week in the Saudi Pro League! Early-season leaders Al Nassr host Al Riyadh in the third league match of the new campaign for both teams. Can Jorge Jesus continue his side's excellent start to the season with another win in this local derby? Or will our prediction be a shock win for the visitors?
After a very strong start to the new campaign, Al Nassr sat at the top of the table after two games so far, scoring seven goals and yet to have a goal conceded against them. They are one of three teams with a 100% winning record so far this season in the league. Al Riyadh sit in ninth position, having picked up three points from their two games, with a -1 goal difference.
Al Nassr began the season by beating Al Ittihad 2-1 in the Saudi Super Cup Semi-final, before losing the final on penalties to Al Ahli, after a 2-2 draw. However, in the league, they have been excellent, defeating Al Tawoun 5-0 away from home before a 2-0 home win over Al Kholood last weekend. In midweek, they had an AFC Cup game against Istiklol, which they won comfortably 5-0.
Al Riyadh kicked off their new season with a tough trip to Al Hilal, where they ended up on the wrong end of a 2-0 defeat. However, they were successful in their second game, beating Al Najma 2-1 at home, despite only having 35% possession in the game.

This derby game has been very one-sided in recent times with Al Nassr enjoying some strong victories over their rivals. With such a strong squad and after a fine start to the season, it is impossible not to back Al Nassr to win here, but adding value in the form of backing Ronaldo to score at any time is a prudent move.

Al Nassr to win and Cristiano Ronaldo to score at any time
