Weak away defense conceding 1.44 goals on average
Defensively they have been solid too. Keeping 3 clean sheets in the last 5 games is no small feat in this league. With 15 points from a possible 15, the momentum is clearly with them. Will the Al Awwal Park crowd be enough to see them through?
Key absences include Saad Haqawi and Sami Al Najei due to injuries. Still, with Sadio Mane finding the net recently, they have plenty of firepower. They have scored in every home game this year, which is a stat that should make the visiting defenders very nervous indeed.
Al Ittihad has been a bit of a mixed bag. They sit in 6th place and are 10 points away from a continental spot. That said, they have gone 3 games without a loss. Can Moussa Diaby and Steven Bergwijn inspire them to an upset?
Their away form is actually quite interesting. They have scored in their last 9 road trips. However, they also concede 1.44 goals per match on average when travelling. This defensive fragility might be their undoing against an attack as potent as the one they face.
Missing players like Faisel Al Ghamdi will hurt their midfield balance. Even so, they always seem to raise their game for these big occasions. We hope our Free Saudi Professional League Predictions help you decide where to place your stake before the 17:30 GMT kick off.

Prediction
Over 2.5 Goals @1.48
Al Nassr currently possesses the most lethal attack in the entire division. They have managed to score 49 goals in just 19 league fixtures. At home, their average sits at a staggering 2.89 goals per game. Given that they have netted in every home match this season, we expect them to push the pace early and find the back of the net multiple times here.
Al Ittihad also contributes significantly to high scoring games when playing away. They have scored in 9 consecutive road matches and average 2.44 goals per away trip. However, their defense is leaky, conceding 1.44 goals on average. With both sides showing strong offensive numbers and defensive gaps, seeing at least 3 goals in this massive rivalry match feels like a very safe bet.
