Pick 2: Al-Nassr to Win (1.50)
Al-Alami have seen a drop in form recently, suffering back-to-back defeats for the first time since August. Their 3-1 loss to Al Raed in the Saudi Pro League on Thursday was their first home loss across all competitions since August, and they will look to bounce back in this match.
While Talisca, Aziz Behich, and Sultan remain sidelined with injuries and Aymeric Laporte is suspended, Raghed Al Najjar and Otavio are expected to return to the starting XI after being rested on Thursday. Ayman Yahya, the goalscorer in the 3-1 loss, picked up a knock in that match but is back in training.
Al Zaeem saw their unbeaten run come to an end after nine games on Thursday as they lost 2-0 at home to Ittihad Kalba. They are unbeaten in their last eight away games in all competitions, scoring at least two goals in five games in that period. They have a narrow one-goal lead on aggregate and will look to play for a draw.
The drop in form for the home team and notable absentees might impact their performance in this match. While they are expected to produce an improved display in the home leg, considering the current form of the two teams, a draw is likely to ensue.
