17.12.2024, 20:00
Al-Nassr will be hoping to find their way back to the top after a series of inconsistencies in their last 5 league games. They are now 3rd placed in the league with a 12-point gap between them and their closest rivals Al-Ittihad. Al-Taawoun on the other hand have had quite limited success in the league this season but this could be the beginning of a turning point for them. Ronaldo got his name on the scoresheet last week and he’ll be glad to make it 2 goals in a row for Nassr on Friday. Let’s analyze both teams’ forms, key stats, and my expert opinion.

Form in the League: WLWLW
Al-Taawoun have had quite a fair run in the league this season with 3 victories in their last five league games. They kickstarted the new year with a stunning 0-3 victory over Al-Qadsia in their last league game and they’ll be hoping for a positive outcome on Friday. Musa Barrow is the man for Taawoun this season as he has found the net in their last two league games with a total of 9 goals to his name this season. They are currently 8th placed in the league table with 6 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses from 14 league games played.
Al-Nassr FC (3rd)
Form in the League: WLWLW
Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr kickstarted the new season with a sensational 3-1 victory over Al-Kholood in their last league game. Kholood got on the scoresheet first with a goal in the 6th minute of the game but it wasn’t enough to give them the victory over Al-Nassr as Al-Nassr put 3 goals past them. Ronaldo’s contract expires in June 2025 and there have been various rumours about Ronaldo’s future in Al-Nassr. Their unbeaten run in the AFC Champions League came to an end at the hands of Al-Sadd.
Their AFC Champions League journey is also taking shape. They’ve won four games with a draw and a loss from the 6 games played. They are currently in 3rd place in the league table with 8 wins, four draws, and 2 losses from 14 games played.

Expert Betting Tips
Al-Nassr must keep up this momentum and secure yet another victory on Friday. Taawoun is quite a tough team to play against, especially with their strong offensive forces and their stable midfield trio. We can expect a total of over 2.5 goals here as both teams are quite great on the offensive. Secondly, I believe Al-Nassr is poised for a victory or a draw here and even though we expect a tough performance from Taawoun, Al-Nassr should still come out victorious. Cristiano Ronaldo to score a goal at any time is also a great choice.
Our first prediction is a total of over 2.5 goals at 1.63 odds for 1xBet.
Our second prediction is for both teams to find the net at 1.75 odds for Betway.
Our third prediction is a win or a draw and a total of over 2.5 goals for Al-Nassr at 1.86 odds for Bet365.
