Al Nassr vs Al Fateh Prediction
Al Nassr come into this one on the back of a much-needed 3-1 defeat of ten-man Al Khaleej in their most recent outing the other day. They have dropped points in seven of their 16 matches so far this season as they sit behind newly-promoted Al Qadsiah in the Saudi Pro League. They now take on an Al Fateh side that are rock-bottom in the league table with just two victories in 16 matches and they begin the 17th match day of the campaign sitting five points adrift of survival. They did earn themselves a much-needed win against Damak last week. Despite that victory and the hosts’ inconsistency, Al Nassr remain favourites for this one.
