Al Nassr vs Al Riyadh Prediction
We have a bit of a derby game this weekend as an underperforming Al Nassr side now prepare to take on Al Riyadh. The hosts have perhaps rediscovered some much-needed form and fluency of late, though, with a comfortable and impressive 3-1 defeat of Al Hilal last weekend. They now face an Al Riyadh side that sit just about tucked inside the top-half but have been generally inconsistent throughout the campaign. Al Nassr are expected to come out on top in this one, once again.
