Al-Raed vs. Al-Nassr (September 16th) Saudi Pro League Match Prediction
Al-Raed will welcome Al-Nassr to the King Abdullah Sport City Stadium for a Saudi Pro League matchday-six clash on Saturday at 15:00 GMT.
Key Highlights
After three consecutive defeats in the opening three matches of the Saudi Pro League, Al-Raed have gained some form in their last two matches, winning one and drawing the other.
The upturn in form has seen Al-Raed pick up four points, which places them 14 on the Saudi Pro League table. However, their challenge is in the attack-and-defense balance. They have scored three times in five matches while conceding eight times.
Al-Raed will look to improve their attacking record; they will need an attacking threat to stand a chance against the fancied Al-Nassr. Crucially, they will need to bolster their defensive record to prevent Al-Nassr from scoring.
