Al Taawoun vs Al Nassr Prediction and Betting Tips | August 29th 2025

Al Taawoun will welcome Al Nassr to King Abdullah Sport City Stadium in their Saudi Pro League campaign opener on Friday. The hosts finished eighth in the league standings last season while Al-Alami were third, missing out on the league title by 13 points.

The hosts had a busy pre-season and met Al Kholood in their final friendly last week. It was a closely contested match, and Kholood recorded a 2-1 win. Waleed Al-Ahmad scored the consolation goal for them in that match.

The visitors were in action in the Saudi Super Cup earlier this month. They defeated Al-Ittihad 2-1 in the semifinals, thanks to goals from Sadio Mane and João Félix, but lost to Al Ahli in the final on penalties. Cristiano Ronaldo scored from the penalty spot in the first half, while Marcelo Brozović added a goal in the 82nd minute.

Al Taawoun vs Al Nassr Prediction

The Wolves have won just two of their last eight league games, with both wins registered at home. They are winless in their last three home meetings against the visitors while conceding seven goals, and will look to improve upon that record.

The Knight of Najd scored two goals apiece in the Saudi Super Cup earlier this month and will look to continue that goalscoring form here. Notably, their three losses in the league since February have all been registered away from home.

The capital club have a good recent record in this fixture and should be able to get their campaign underway with a narrow win.

Prediction: Al Taawoun 1-2 Al Nassr
