- Competition: Saudi Pro League
- Date: 6th February 2026
- Kick-off: 17:30 UK / 18:30 CET
- Venue: AL-AWWAL PARK Stadium
Friday night in Riyadh brings one of those fixtures that always feels louder than the table suggests. Al Nassr host Al Ittihad with the title race still breathing. The gap between them is twelve points, yet context matters. The Global One sit just a point off the summit, while the Tigers are drifting in sixth. On paper, the home win makes sense. Still, games like this rarely behave. Al Ittihad arrive with less pressure and a clear desire to spoil the mood.

Since 2023, these two have met nine times across domestic competitions. Al Ittihad edge it with five wins, though clean sheets were rare. Al Nassr have taken four, including two of the last three meetings. Goals have been almost guaranteed. An average of 3.78 per game tells you these matches open up quickly.
Al Nassr team overview
Al Nassr once looked ready to sprint clear. Ten straight wins early on set that tone. Lately, however, doubts crept in after a four-game winless spell around the turn of the year. That wobble has eased.
Jorge Jesus’ side are back on a five-match winning run and, perhaps more tellingly, have kept clean sheets in their last three.
The gap to first is just one point. Cristiano Ronaldo is unlikely to feature after missing the win over Al Riyadh, reportedly unhappy with the quiet January window.
Sadio Mané, though, is back among the goals after returning from AFCON, and he should line up alongside João Félix again.

Al Ittihad team overview
Last season’s title win still feels fresh. Al Ittihad ran away with it, finishing eight points clear. This year has been very different.
Sérgio Conceição’s side sit sixth, thirteen points off top spot, and wins have been hard to come by. Just two in the last six tells the story.
Away form is another concern, with no victories in the last three trips and only one win in six away matches overall.
The exits of N’Golo Kanté and Karim Benzema, now at Fenerbahce and Al Hilal, have left a real hole. Saad Al-Mousa is also out injured, though suspensions are not an issue.

Prediction
Al Nassr look well placed to edge this one. Eleven of their last twelve home games produced at least three goals, and they are a point off the summit with three straight clean sheets. Al Ittihad concede often away, seeing eight of nine road games go over 2.5. A tight but lively 2-1 home win fits the numbers support it.
Three reasons we expect at least three goals in this game
- Eight of the last nine away games of Al Ittihad ended with over 2.5 goals.
- 11 of the last 12 home games of Al Nassr produced three or more goals.
- 6 of the last 7 meetings between Al Nassr and Al Ittihad produced over 2.5 goals.
