Al Nassr welcome Al Zawraa to Riyadh on Wednesday evening, and honestly, it feels like another checkpoint rather than a crossroads for the hosts. Al-Alami have been spotless in this AFC Champions League campaign so far, and that mirrors what they are doing domestically too. Nine league games, nine wins, no drama. In the AFC Champions League, it’s five from five. Al Zawraa arrive in a different place altogether. The Iraqi side sit ninth in their league and are six points off the pace in this group. That does not make them pushovers, but it does frame the challenge. Below, I’ll walk you through the form, the match-up, and a few betting ideas worth thinking about.

These two have met three times before, most recently back in October, and the story has been fairly one-sided. Jesus’ side won all three meetings and generally looked a step sharper in key moments. Games between them have not been tight, either. You are looking at an average of just over three goals per match.
Al Nassr FC team overview
It has been a fun season if you follow Al Nassr, and there is a quiet expectation around the club that silverware should follow. Their most recent outing was only a friendly, but even there, Jorge Jesus’ side treated it seriously, winning 4-2 and stretching their winning run to six games.
What stands out is the attacking rhythm. Three goals or more in each of the last five matches is not accidental. At the other end, things are fairly steady too, with just six conceded in their last eight home games.
There are absences, though. Sadio Mané is away with Senegal at AFCON, which removes a lot of pace and directness. Abdulmalik Al-Jaber, Saad Al-Nasser, and Sami Al-Najei are all sidelined with injuries.
João Félix has quietly chipped in with two goals in the AFC Champions League and should start, likely alongside 20-year-old Wesley. Cristiano Ronaldo remains an option, and even when he does not start, his presence alone changes how opponents prepare.

Al Zawraa team overview
Al Zawraa do not arrive in poor shape, and that is worth stressing. The Gulls have won five games in a row, including two away victories where they looked confident rather than cautious.
A 2-0 win over Al Qasim and a 3-1 result at Mosul back that up. Emad El-Nahhas’ side have lost only once in their last five away matches, so they will not see this as a free hit, even with the history against them being bleak.
Up front, Hasan Abdulkareem is in decent form. His goal against GOA on matchday five took him to two for the competition, and he should lead the line again alongside Gbadamosi, who is on the same tally.

Prediction
Al Nassr look set to continue their perfect AFC Champions League run with a 3-1 win at Al-Awwal Park. Jorge Jesus’ side have won all five group games, scored freely in recent weeks, and already beaten the Gulls three times historically. Al Zawraa are in form, but Al Nassr’s depth and attacking tempo should tell, especially at home.
Three reasons we expect at least three goals
- Two of the last three meetings between Al Nassr and the Gulls finished with over 2.5 goals.
- Five of Al Zawraa’s last six matches produced at least three goals.
- Each of Al Nassr’s last five games ended with four goals or more.
