- Venue: Al Fateh club stadium (Al-Hofuf)
CR7 and his Al Nassr teammates make their final road trip of the Saudi Pro League season as they look to end on a high note against bottom-half side Al Fateh.
Al Fateh have officially secured their Saudi Pro League status for at least another year, having edged out a 10-man Damac side with a slender yet crucial 1-0 win courtesy of a solitary strike from Mourad Batna, which gave them an eight-point cushion above the drop zone.
Late second-half strikes from Jonathan Duran and Cristiano Ronaldo powered Al Nassr Riyadh past mid-table dwellers Al Khaleej in a routine 2-0 triumph, yet despite that strong display, the Riyadh giants have already seen their hopes of continental football mathematically dashed.
Al Fateh vs Al Nassr Riyadh Betting Tips : AL NASSR & OVER 2.5
With the gateway to Asia’s top-tier club competition firmly shut, Al Nassr will now look to salvage their season by locking down a place in the continent’s second-string tournament, something that demands a commanding display on Monday’s road trip paired with a misstep from Al Qadsiah on the final matchday. Encouragingly for the Riyadh outfit, Al Qadisiya face a daunting assignment on the road against high-flying Al Hilal, and that scenario paves the way for Ronaldo’s crew to break into the promotion zone as long as they take care of business on Monday, which seems likely considering they’ve swept Al Fateh in their last four encounters including a comprehensive 3-1 drubbing earlier in the season. While aiming to clinch a priceless three points to seal a top-three finish, the Knights of Najd will draw inspiration from their most recent Saudi Pro League road outing, where they completely tore apart a helpless Al Okhdood side by netting a jaw-dropping nine unanswered goals, extending their red-hot winning streak on enemy turf to three. Al Fateh certainly have the tools to trouble the Riyadh giants, especially after showcasing a fluid attacking rhythm by netting at least twice in four straight home appearances including a wild seven-goal thriller defeat to Al Hilal, yet we back Al Nassr to flex their firepower and come away from this high-scoring Monday clash with maximum rewards.
