Damac vs Al Nassr: Preview, Prediction & Lineups
Damac currently sit 11th in the Saudi Pro League with 31 points from 28 matches. They come off a confidence-boosting 3-1 home win against Al-Kholood, with Georges-Kevin N’Koudou scoring twice and Nicolae Stanciu adding a free-kick goal. However, Damac have struggled defensively this season, conceding 43 goals and lacking clean sheets against Al Nassr historically. Injuries to Abdullah Al Qahtani and Sanousi Al Hawsawi weaken their defense.
Al Nassr are third in the table with 57 points, chasing the title, but recently suffered a 2-1 loss to Al-Qadsiah. Cristiano Ronaldo leads their attack as the league’s top scorer, supported by Sadio Mane and Otávio in midfield. Al Nassr have won their last seven meetings with Damac and boast a strong attacking record, scoring over 1.5 goals in each of their last five matches. All players are fit and available for selection.
