The Saudi Pro League match between Al-Nassr and Al-Taawoun will take place on Friday, 16 May 2025. Kick-off is set for 20:00 CEST in Italy, Germany, France and Spain, and at 19:00 BST in the UK. This fixture, closing out Matchday 32, sees Al-Nassr aiming to secure Champions League Elite qualification, while Al-Taawoun look to finish the season on a high.
Hosted at Al-Nassr’s fortress-like home ground, the encounter promises plenty of attacking intent. With Al-Nassr sitting third on 63 points and Al-Taawoun eighth on 41, the gulf in ambitions is clear—but football often delivers surprises.
Comment les deux équipes abordent-elles ce match ?
Al-Nassr have been in sensational form under Stefano Pioli, registering 19 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses in 31 league games. Their 9-0 demolition of Al Akhdoud in midweek highlighted a ruthless attack that has scored 73 goals this season. At home, they’ve dropped points just seven times, making them heavy favourites.
Al-Taawoun, guided by Mohammed Abdullah Ali Al-Abdali, have endured an up-and-down campaign. Their 11 wins are offset by 12 defeats and a goal difference of +1. Recent form shows just one victory in five matches, including a 0-1 loss to Al Qadsiah, and an away record that leaves plenty to be desired.
Nos prévisions
We back Al-Nassr to claim a comfortable home victory, leveraging both their attacking firepower and Al-Taawoun’s frailties in defence. A win here would all but seal their spot in next season’s Champions League Elite.
Given Al-Nassr’s high-scoring games and Al-Taawoun’s tendency to concede, les deux équipes doivent marquer looks a tempting secondary option. This bet could boost returns while still siding with the hosts.
