Al Nassr vs Al Kholood Preview, prediction, injury news & lineups | Saudi Pro League 2026-27
The Big Yellow are unbeaten against Pride of Ar Rass.
Al Nassr FC are gearing up to lock horns with Al Kholood for their matchweek 12 fixture of the Saudi Pro League 2026-27 campaign. These clubs are all set to face off at Al Awwal Park.
Cristiano Ronaldo and company are now on a four-match winning run. They will only be looking to extend their current run of form. Al Nassr are coming off an easy 3-1 victory against Al Faisaly in their previous league game. It was a crucial win for the club to keep their title charge alive.
With eight wins in their first 10 games, the Ange Postecoglou-led side are in second place on the points table. They are defending their league title and things are currently going right for them. Al Nassr will be looking to make full use of their home ground advantage in their upcoming contest.
On the other hand, Des Buckingham’s men have not performed well in their last four games. They have faced consecutive losses and will be desperate to get back to winning ways. Pride of Ar Rass suffered a 0-3 loss against Al Ettifaq in what was a poor effort by them.
Al Kholood will be away from home, and this will only make things more pressurising for them.
