Al-Nassr Riyadh

In their last outing, Al-Nassr Riyadh secured a narrow 1-0 victory away to Al-Batin. This win extended their unbeaten run in the league to six matches (4 wins, 2 draws). Al-Nassr currently sits in second place, trailing the league leaders by three points. With only two matches remaining, they need to win both to keep their title hopes alive.


  • The team has not lost in regular time in their last 5 home matches in the Saudi Pro League (4 wins, 1 draw).
  • Al-Nassr has scored at least two goals in 4 of their last 5 home games in this tournament.
  • Cristiano Ronaldo has found the net in 3 of Al-Nassr's last 4 matches.

Al-Khaleej

Al-Khaleej suffered a 0-2 defeat at home to Al-Fateh in their previous match. This result marked their third consecutive loss in the league, leaving them in the relegation zone. With two games left, Al-Khaleej must secure maximum points and rely on other results to avoid dropping to the lower division.


  • The team has not won in regular time in their last 4 away matches in the Saudi Pro League (2 draws, 2 losses).
  • Al-Khaleej has conceded at least two goals in 3 of their last 4 away games in this tournament.
  • They have failed to score in 3 of their last 5 matches.

Al-Nassr Riyadh vs. Al-Khaleej: Match Prediction

Al-Nassr Riyadh has been in solid form at home, and with the title still within reach, they are expected to push for a comprehensive win. Meanwhile, Al-Khaleej is struggling both offensively and defensively, making it difficult for them to challenge Al-Nassr. Considering these factors, my prediction: Al-Nassr Riyadh to win

Al-Nassr — Al Khaleej betting tips 21 May 2025

Al-Nassr maintained their impressive goal-scoring form despite the absence of Cristiano Ronaldo, with the team netting a combined total of 10 goals over their last two fixtures. However, for the upcoming encounter against mid-standings Al-Khaleej, Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to return to the starting line-up, aiming to extend his lead in the Golden Boot standings.

Another season without silverware continues to raise questions about this period for Al-Nassr, even with the Portuguese legend in the squad. After a 1:1 draw with Al-Taawoun, they slipped out of the top three, overtaken by Al-Qadsiah. Nevertheless, they remain one of the most potent attacking sides in the league, having scored 74 goals over 32 matchdays – a statistic surpassed by only two other teams. Heading into the penultimate round of the season, Cristiano Ronaldo leads the scoring charts by two goals ahead of Karim Benzema and Abderrazak Hamdallah (23+3).

Al-Khaleej returned to winning ways with a 2:1 victory over Al-Orobah, their first since 6 April, halting a five-game winless run consisting of four losses and a draw. They have the leakiest defence among the league’s top ten, having conceded 52 goals. Their away performances remain troubling as well, with seven defeats in 16 games. A visit to Riyadh presents a daunting task for this mid-standings squad.

Since the start of last season, Al-Nassr have claimed four consecutive wins over Al-Khaleej, scoring six goals across their last two meetings – both of which ended 3:1. We expect the team’s individual Total Over to be covered once again.
