อัล อะห์ลี vs อัล นัสเซอร์

Al Nassr currently sit third in the Saudi Pro League on 16 points from seven matches, while Al Ahli sit three places back in sixth with 12. Neither side has been flawless, so this clash is an early chance to close the gap on the league's front-runners. Al Nassr have blown hot and cold, beating Al-Taawoun before stumbling against Al Ittihad and Al Khaleej, then suffering a heavy continental defeat to Al-Ain. Cristiano Ronaldo and Angelo share the scoring lead with three league goals each, while Sadio Mane has been the side's standout performer. Al Ahli have been just as unpredictable, thrashing Al Riyadh 5-0 before losing to Al Qadsiah. Ivan Toney leads their attack, with Riyad Mahrez and Trincao driving things from midfield. It's one of the league's most even rivalries, with 34 wins apiece in 86 meetings, and Al Ahli won 3-2 when the two sides last met in January. Our prediction: 2-1
