Preview: Al Shabab vs Al Nassr prediction, odds, where to watch, time | Saudi Pro League 2025-26
The previous outing between these clubs ended in favour of Cristiano Ronaldo and company.
Al Shabab are now going to lock horns with Al Nassr for their matchweek 32 contest of the 2025-26 Saudi Pro League. This is going to be an entertaining outing, which is scheduled to take place at the Al-Shabab Club Stadium.
The White Lions will be at home, and they must use the conditions to their advantage. Noureddine Zekri’s men are coming in after facing a thrashing 1-5 defeat at the hands of Al Taawoun. Even though they were first to take the lead, the White Lions came up with a lacklustre performance and dropped three points.
Having won seven of their 30 games, Al Shabab Club are in 13th place on the league table. They are going to be under pressure for their next one.
Al Nassr’s winning streak has come to an end. They were outplayed by Al Qadsiah in their previous matchup. It was a 1-3 defeat, and their chances of winning the league title are going to drop significantly. Al Alami will be eager to return to winning ways now.
The Jorge Jesus-led side are still at the top of the Saudi Pro League points table, and they cannot drop any more points going forward. Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. need to work on their strategy on the attacking front, and their ball control was also on the lower side.

Players to Watch
Abderrazak Hamdallah (Al Shabab)
Abderrazak Hamdallah is going to be one of the main men in the final third for Al Shabab. He was the sole goal scorer for his side in the previous outing, but it was not enough for them to avoid defeat. In 14 Saudi Pro League appearances this season, the 35-year-old has eight goal contributions.
Cristiano Ronaldo (Al Nassr)
Although the Portuguese talisman failed to score a goal in the previous outing for Al Nassr, he is still going to play an important role in the attacking front. Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 25 goals and has two assists in 27 league games of the ongoing campaign.
He is defending his Golden Boot and is in a heated race with Ivan Toney and Julian Quinones. CR7 will be looking to score a goal or two and help his side get back to winning ways.
