Al-Nasr – Al-Ittihad. Forecast, announcement for the match of the championship of Saudi Arabia

On February 6, Al-Awwal Park will host a match of the 21st round of the Saudi Professional League, in which An-Nasr will meet Al-Ittihad. The match will start at 21:30 Kyiv time.

Al-Nasr

The team, it seems, has fallen into some kind of golden trap with Ronaldo, whom it lured to itself. Now everyone knows where Cristiano spends his, most likely, last football years. But it does not bring titles. So last season there was only third place in the final table of the championship and failures in other tournaments.

It seemed that the current cycle would also disappoint. The club managed to lose both in the cup and in the Super Cup, and fell behind Al-Hilal in the championship, and also conceded to them as part of their losing streak. But it was after those 1:3 that a series of victories began, despite the fact that the competitor, on the contrary, began to lose points, albeit due to draws. The intrigue is alive again and, therefore, there is something to play for victory in every match, including here!

Al-Ittihad

The club was definitely good last season. Then he collected 83 points and with a good margin won the championship title, which became the project’s anniversary, the tenth in history. At that time, Laurent Blanc was an absolute hero, and in the case he received the status of the best coach of the entire division – and already in September he lost his position. The favorite started too unconvincingly in the new draw.

The Frenchman has not been in Jeddah for a long time, but the problems have not gone anywhere yet. The current coach, Sergio Conceição, is unable to somehow stabilize the game – it has been more than a month since he has been unable to complete two consecutive victories. Even Benzema, the best striker, went to Al-Hilal – let’s see how he will be able to be replaced by a very young French talent, Ileniken from Monaco.

Statistics of personal meetings

At the beginning of the season, in the Super Cup and in the national championship, An-Nasr was stronger. But then he lost to this opponent in the country’s cup.

Forecast

Bookmakers do not believe that the guests will be able to stop the opponent, who has gained momentum. We bet on the victory of the home team (coefficient – 1.60 according to the BC betking line).
