Preview

Match preview

Al-Ittihad host Al-Nassr in an early-season Saudi Pro League encounter featuring two unbeaten sides. Al-Nassr arrive with a flawless record, having taken maximum points from their opening four matches while registering 12 goals across those fixtures.

Al-Ittihad sit in fifth place with eight points from four matches, having won two and drawn two. The hosts have demonstrated solid attacking rhythm with four goals scored across their two home fixtures, though they have also conceded three times on home turf.

Double Chance

Al-Nassr or Draw

74%

Confidence

Al-Nassr enter this fixture in formidable league form, winning all four of their matches while averaging 3.0 goals per game overall and 3.5 goals away from home. Al-Ittihad are also unbeaten with two wins and two draws, but have conceded 1.5 goals per game at home. The head-to-head record is competitive, with each side winning five of the last ten meetings, but Al-Nassr's potent start gives them a strong probability of securing at least a point in Jeddah.
