Defending champions Al Nassr return to action in the Saudi Pro League with a clash against newly-promoted Diriyah at Al Awwal Park in Riyadh.
Al Nassr vs Diriyah prediction
For both club and country, Cristiano Ronaldo’s guaranteed minutes in the eleven is now diminishing. However, Ange Postecoglou will still continue to start his captain for now as defending champions Al Nassr seek to rediscover their fluency from the start of the campaign.
Following their promotion to last season, Diriyah have started steadily with three victories and two draws in their opening five matches. They most recently shared a goalless draw with Abha a few weeks ago before the international break.
Al Nassr will be expected to eventually come out on top but their form as well as Diriyah’s would suggest it may not be the most thrilling or dominant of performances.
