Persepolis have been a dominant team in Iran, winning the last two league titles and seven out of the previous eight years. However, this season, they are not looking like the best team in Iran, as they sit in 3rd place with 37 points from 19 matches. They also just got eliminated from the Cup in the 1/8 Finals by Sepahan. Additionally, things aren't going great in the AFC Champions League as they are currently in 9th with six points from seven matches. Still, the 1/8 Finals are close as they are on level with points with Esteghlal, which are in the eighth spot. So, this game against Al Nassr is a must-win.
When Ronaldo arrived, everyone expected a lot from Al Nassr, both in the domestic and the continental competitions. However, we can safely say they were disappointing. They failed to win any major trophies, and their only title was in the Arab Club Champions Cup. This season, they had a poor start in the domestic league and, because of it, are in 3rd place - five points away from the top spot. However, as the season progresses, they are only looking better and have won five in a row. In the AFC Champions League, they easily reached the next stage of the competition, winning 16 points in seven rounds.
Persepolis vs Al Nassr pick: Al Nassr to win and cover the -1 AH spread
Persepolis have been far from impressive lately, winning just once in the last four matches. And in the Champions League, they were terrible against the teams from Saudi Arabia - Al Ahli SC and Al Hilal. Persepolis lost both games against those teams with a 1:5 goal difference.
Meanwhile, Al Nassr are in fantastic form, having won six in a row. In the Champions League, they won five out of seven matches. Also, through the season, Al Nassr was really good away from home, losing just once in 15 games in all competitions with a 73% win rate.
Considering all the above, but especially the difference in form, we believe that Al Nassr will secure a comfortable win.
