Al Nassr team overview
Al Nassr are hoping to end a two-season trophy drought, with their last silverware coming in the 2022/23 campaign. In the Saudi Super Cup semi-final, they faced a difficult task against Al-Ittihad, compounded by a first-half sending off. Sadio Mané was dismissed for serious foul play and will now miss the final on Saturday. Despite being a man down, Al Nassr still managed to assert their superiority, with João Félix scoring the winning goal on the hour mark.
This summer, Al Nassr underwent a major squad overhaul, welcoming several superstar signings to the team: Kingsley Coman, João Félix, and Iñigo Martínez have all joined the Saudi League project.

Al Ahli team overview
Al Ahli, on the other hand, have had a much easier journey to the Saudi Super Cup final. After going 1-0 down within the first ten minutes against Al Qadsiah, Al Ahli scored three consecutive goals and added a fourth just before half-time, following the sending off of Al Qadsiah’s left wing-back, Christopher Baah, a couple of minutes earlier. Al Ahli then added a fifth goal in the second half, comfortably securing their first Saudi Super Cup final appearance since 2016.
Al Ahli have less recent finals experience and are generally seen as underdogs, with no major reinforcements in the team’s starting eleven.

Prediction
An in-form, superstar-led, and highly motivated Al Nassr side are seen as clear favourites to lift the Saudi Super Cup this Saturday. A victory would end their two-year trophy drought, and given the star-studded squad at their disposal, anything less than winning the final would be a real disappointment for Al Nassr. The recent head-to-head record also favours them in every way — they are unbeaten in seven consecutive matches and have defeated Al Ahli in three of the last four encounters. We are confident that Al Nassr will claim their first major trophy since 2023 on Saturday.
Three reasons we expect Al Nassr to Win
- Al Nassr are undefeated in 7 consecutive H2H meetings against Al Ahli
- Al Nassr have won 3 of their last 4 H2H matches against Al Ahli
- Al Nassr have more superstar players in their squad and are seen as clear favourites to win the Saudi Super Cup
