The Saudi Pro league resumes after the international break and Al Shabab will be looking to bounce back when they host Al Nassr. The match on Saturday finds Al Shabab placed fourth, a place and two points behind Al Nassr. Let’s take a look at the stats going into this clash and a prediction.
Before closing for the two-week break, Al Shabab suffered their second defeat of the season. They lost 1-0 away to Damac, and with it, swapped places with Al Nassr in the league standings.
The hosts will not only be keen to rise again but also not to suffer a second home defeat. Al Shabab conceded a total of 15 goals over the last five meetings with Al Nassr. That will be a top concern going into this match.
This is a fixture Al Nassr have dominated in recent seasons, both in terms of wins and goals. The last time the two faced off, Al Nassr won 3-2, registering their third straight victory against Al Shabab.
The visitors will be favorites to win here too, coming into this match unbeaten in nine matches across all competitions. A 3-0 victory against Al Orubah set them on a five-match winning run before heading to the break.
Al Nassr will thus be confident of closing in on the league leaders, Al Hilal, who play a few hours earlier. This will be their first away match in four outings and they’ll be targeting a third straight win away from home.

Our Al Shabab vs Al Nasr Prediction
It is now getting to three years since Al Nassr last lost this fixture; they have a seven-match undefeated run against Al Shabab. A key to this run in recent matches has been Cristiano Ronaldo, whose goals have really elevated the visitors.
In each of the last three matches against their hosts, he got to score. Approaching this game, he has five goals in five matches against Al Shabab and also comes here in top form. Our prediction for Al Nassr v Al Shabab is for Cristiano Ronaldo to score.
