Within the semifinal stage of the Saudi Champions Cup, Al-Nassr will play against Al-Khaleej at the "KSU Stadium" in Riyadh. Will the hosts encounter any difficulties? Here's the prediction for this match from the experts at Dailysports.
Al-Nassr
Under the guidance of Luís Castro, the team is having a fairly strong season, but considering their ambitions, more was expected. It's unlikely now that they can catch up with Al-Hilal in the league, given the nine-point gap. Especially with Al-Hilal's dominant performance, securing victories one after another. Al-Nassr's management also had hopes for victory in the Champions League, but unfortunately, the "World Club" couldn't get past Al-Ain. In the last round, Al-Nassr secured an away victory against their future opponent in the Saudi Champions Cup with a score of 1-0. It's worth noting that prior to this, Al-Nassr lost to Al-Hilal in the Saudi Super Cup with a score of 1-2.
Al-Khaleej
Under Pedro Emanuel's leadership, the team is having one of its less stellar seasons, currently sitting in 11th place in the league table. After 29 matches played, Al-Khaleej has accumulated 35 points, which is nine points clear of the relegation zone. In the last round, Al-Khaleej played a home match against Al-Nassr, where they suffered a 0-1 defeat. Consequently, Pedro Emanuel's team hasn't won in three consecutive matches, managing to secure only one point in an away match against Al-Taawoun. Interestingly, Al-Khaleej remains unbeaten in five away matches, securing victories in three instances.
