Ahead of the 12th round, Al-Nasr Club are two points behind leaders Al-Hilal. They can ill afford to drop points against mid-table Al-Kholood in this situation.
Al-Nasr Club
Al-Nasr Club have dropped points only twice since the start of the league season: a defeat to Al-Ittihad (1:2) and a draw with Al-Khaleej (1:1). Both were away from home. They will play at home 29 October 2026, having won six consecutive Pro League matches there. The first of those wins came under Jorge Jesus, whose relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo is now strained, to put it mildly. Speaking of Ronaldo, the Portuguese forward has scored just 5 goals in 12 appearances across all competitions for his club this season.
Al-Kholood
Al-Kholood's leading scorer has scored just four Pro League goals. More precisely, the club from Ar Rass have two joint top scorers — Iker Kortajarena and Julien Dominguez. Between them, they have scored once in the last two rounds, through Dominguez, while the team have scored only twice. That has resulted in two defeats. Al-Kholood have now lost four matches in a row, failing to score in three of them.
Al-Nasr Club vs Al-Kholood Prediction
With the visitors facing the Pro League's best defence, conceding 0.8 goals per game, it is hard to expect them to score even once. Al-Nasr Club's two wins in the 2025/26 season (2:0 and 3:0) reinforce that view. Our prediction is for the hosts to win to nil.
