Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr lost its previous two games of the 2023 Saudi Pro League, meaning that beating Al Fateh on the road on Friday, August 25, is a must for this team. Will they pull it off?
Before Betting on Al Fateh vs. Al Nassr
Even though Al Nassr is still without a single point in the 2023 season of the Saudi Pro League, the fact is that this is one of the best teams in the Middle East. Cristiano Ronaldo is Al Nassr’s biggest star, but there are plenty of other world-class players on the roster.
For example, two of Ronaldo’s colleagues in the attacking department are Sadio Mane and Talisca, who scored two goals for Al Nassr in the AFC Champions League on Tuesday. This team is also very strong in the center of the pitch, especially since the arrival of Marcelo Brozovic.
The midfield section is going to get even stronger once Portuguese midfielder Otavio arrives. He inked a deal with Al Nassr to move there from Porto earlier this week, meaning that we could see him make his Saudi Pro League debut on Friday.
But what about al Nassr’s defense? Well, that’s this team’s Achilles heel, and that’s what’s giving them headaches ahead of their trip to Al-Hase where they will be welcomed by Al Fateh, a team that’s very good offensively.

Al Nassr is ready to get its first win in the 2023 Saudi Pro League. These guys are way superior to Al Fateh, and they’re going to show it on Friday. Sure, they might concede a goal or two, but with Ronaldo, Mane, and Talisca in the front three, they should be able to make up for any mistake made by their defense.
Pick: Al Nassr to win
