Porto vs Al Nassr Prediction

Dragões have enjoyed a 100% record in the friendlies thus far and will look to conclude the pre-season with a win at home. They play Sporting in the Supertaca next week and will look to warm up for that clash with a win here.

Al-Alami are winless in the pre-season thus far. Head coach Luis Castro returns to his former club after 10 years while this will also be a reunion for former players Alex Telles and Otávio. Cristiano Ronaldo is still not back from his vacation and will play no part in this match.

Considering the hosts' impressive form in the pre-season and home advantage, we back Porto to register a win.

Prediction: Porto 2-1 Al Nassr
