Al-Nassr will host Al-Fateh at Al-Awwal Park on Sunday in another round of the 2024-25 Saudi Professional League campaign. The home side have had mixed results in the league this season and are pushing for a return to the continental spots in the table as they round up the first half of the campaign.
They picked up a 3-1 win over 10-man Al-Khaleej last time out, with talisman Cristiano Ronaldo scoring a brace to help secure maximum points for Stefano Pioli's men. Al-Alami remain fourth in the Saudi Pro League with 32 points from 16 matches and will be looking to add to that tally when they return to home turf this weekend.
Al-Fateh have endured a woeful season and are at risk of dropping down to the second tier for the first time since the 2008-09 campaign. Following a 9-0 hiding at the hands of champions Al-Hilal last week, Al Namothji were desperate to rectify things and started with a 2-1 comeback victory over Damac last time out.
The visitors sit rock-bottom in the table with just nine points picked up all season and will be looking to take inspiration from their latest result.

Al-Nassr vs Al-Fateh Prediction
Faris Najd have won two of their last three matches and will head into Sunday's clash as clear favorites. They have won their last two matches at Al-Awwal Park and are well poised to secure a third this weekend.
Al-Fateh's latest result ended a disastrous 14-game winless streak and they will be looking to kick on from that this weekend. They are, however, badly mismatched ahead of the trip to the capital and could lose this one.
Prediction: Al-Nassr 4-1 Al-Fateh
