Al Nassr cruising at Al-Awwal Park — can Al Khaleej cause an upset?
Riyadh lights up on 23 November as Al Nassr welcome Al Khaleej to Al-Awwal Park. The numbers read like a manifesto: Al Nassr sit top of the Pro League, unbeaten after eight fixtures with a staggering 26 goals scored and only four conceded. Their recent run is emphatic — nine wins in their last ten domestic outings with just a solitary loss — and the home form is every bit as dominant, with 14 home goals and only three shipped. Al Khaleej, by contrast, arrive as a mid-table force of attacking intent. They have netted 21 goals across eight games, but defensive frailties have left them with 11 conceded, producing roller-coaster results and a position of sixth on the table.
The clash at King Saud University’s ground promises to be played at pace. Al Nassr’s statistics underline an aggressive attacking blueprint: high shot volumes, an average of more than eight corners and dangerous attack metrics that consistently push opponents into reactive modes. Al Khaleej are no pushovers offensively — their recent 4-1 triumphs and a 4-4 stalemate against league bigs show they can both score and be scored against. Expect a match where both teams look to impose themselves early and where defensive vulnerabilities could be ruthlessly exposed.
