Al Nassr are ready to challenge Al Shabab in this Pro League match. Everything you can learn about the game can be found here!
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
It's no vacation for neither Al Nassr nor Al Shabab as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Al Nassr form and stats
The home fans saw their team lose the first Pro League game of the season here at Mrsool Park. Last season these fans witnessed 12 wins, 3 draws and 0 losses from Al Nassr's 15 home games.
Nassr enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Al Fateh's place. The match ended 5-0 with Aveiro and Mané (2) scoring. As mentioned above, Al Nassr "killed" Al Fateh in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. What a game it was for Aveiro when beating Al Fateh, applying the finishing touch to three goals!
A home victory ahead of that game, as anticipated. The team were solid favourites against Shabab Al Ahli Dubai and won 4-2.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Al Nassr as they are travelling to their away game against Al Hazm in the Pro League. That match is four days after this one.
