- Competition: AFC Champions League
- Date: 2nd December 2024
- Kick-off: 18:00 UTC / 19:00 CET
- Venue: Al -Awwal Park
Al Nassr will have the chance to register three consecutive wins for the second time this season on Monday evening when they play host to Al Sadd in the AFC Champions League.
After beating Al Gharafa last weekend, Al Nassr needed to boost their confidence with another win and they did just that with a comfortable 2-0 win over Damac in the league last time out. Cristiano and Co will be looking for another win against Al-Sadd on Monday, but their home record has not been the best of late. The Global Ones have failed to win three of their last five home matches, recording just two wins whilst suffering two defeats.
Al-Sadd meanwhile have struggled to replicate their Qatar Stars League title-winning form of last season. The visitors sit four points off the summit but with 12 games remaining, they still have a chance to turn things around. The King of Hearts take a nine-game unbeaten run into Monday's clash with Al Nassr, and having drawn with Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal in that run, they will be keen to get the better of Al Nassr.
Al Nassr vs Al-Sadd Betting Tips: BTTS - Yes
Al Nassr played over 90 minutes without conceding against Dama in the league in midweek without conceding, but clean sheets have been rare for Stefano Pioli’s men in recent months especially at this ground. Al-Alami kept a clean sheet in just one of their last five games, with bets on ‘’btts – yes’’ winning in three of those encounters.
Aside Al Nassr’s defence, Al Sadd are doing very well in the final third at the moment with the visiting boasting at least one goal from each of their last sixteen games across all competitions. Both teams scored in each of the last four.
