Al-Nassr v Al-Khaleej Prediction and Betting Tip - Odds, H2H and Preview Predictions

Al-Nassr v Al-Khaleej Preview

With Al-Ittihad crowned as champions a few days ago, there is very little left to play for between the other teams throughout the majority of division, besides the relegation fight with Al-Raed having been relegated already alongside two pending teams.

Pride remains a wonderful thing to fight for, however, and two teams with no league achievements to aim for in this campaign will do battle on Wednesday afternoon.

Key Statistics

• Neither side has anything to play for anymore, with the title having been wrapped up and relegation a concern for neither
• Al-Nassr will be hoping for a big final flourish this season after a disappointing campaign, one that sees them sat 13 points behind eventual champions Al-Ittihad
• Al-Khaleej come into this game fresh from a win, defeating Al-Orobah last Friday for a first win in 6 matches

Al-Nassr Preview

Predicted Starting Lineup: Bento; Al-Ghannam, Lajami, Al-Fatil, Boushal, Brozovic, Al-Sulaiheem, Otavio, Mane, Duran, Ronaldo

Al-Nassr may not be entirely thrilled with the way this season has gone. Despite boasting some of the strongest players in the division, including the legendary figure of Cristiano Ronaldo, they currently sit 13 points behind the recently-crowned champions Al-Ittihad, the employer of Ronaldo's former Real Madrid cohort, Karim Benzema.

Now, Al-Nassr have nothing left to play for in this campaign, with two league matches remaining, with both of their domestic cup exits now seeing their hopes of AFC Champions League football dashed for the forthcoming season.

However, they will still be playing for pride, and will hope to make quick work of their visitors on Wednesday afternoon.

In terms of available personnel, Aymeric Laporte is expected to remain absent from the defence following an injury in late April. Leading scorer Cristiano Ronaldo may make his way back into the team, after missing the last two games to recover from physical exhaustion. The Portuguese legend has hit 33 goals and 4 assists in 39 games this season.

Al-Khaleej Preview

Predicted Starting Lineup: Raed; Hamsal, Al-Fahad, Al-Khabrani, Rebocho, Hamzi, Kourbelis, Murg, Aboulshamat, Fortounis, Al-Salem

They may not have some of the star power of some of the clubs around them, but Al-Khaleej have put up a strong campaign to sit in and around the mid-table positions.

Their win against Al-Orobah last time out, to the tune of 2-1 away from home, secured their mathematical survival from the drop zone this season, and the side showed plenty of character alongside a starring role from Kostas Fortounis.

They remain as the expected heavy underdogs for this clash, but they have booked their place in this division for the season coming, and can be happy with their efforts in doing so.
