Contents
- Competition: AFC Champions League
- Date: Tuesday, 24th October 2023
- Kickoff: 19:00 UTC +1 / 20:00 CEST
- Venue: Al-Awwal Park (Riyadh)
In the third round of the AFC Champions League Group phase, Al Nassr from Saudi Arabia and Al Duhail from Qatar will compete against each other in Riyadh on Tuesday evening.
With the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo, Al Nasr has entered a new era. In the previous season, the club fell short of winning any trophies, settling for second place in the domestic league and suffering defeat to Al Wehda in the Cup Semi-Finals. However, this season, they have strengthened their team by acquiring several outstanding players who have previously excelled in top European teams. They have already clinched their first trophy, the Arab Club Champions Cup, with Ronaldo. Currently, Al Nassr is showcasing excellent form, positioning themselves as one of the frontrunners not only in the domestic league but also in the AFC Champions League.
Al Duhail enters this season following a triumphant previous one, clinching both the domestic league and Qatar Cup titles, along with the Super Cup from last year. In an effort to bolster their team, they acquired a few players from European teams. However, the current season has commenced poorly for Al Duhail across all competitions. Their start in the AFC Champions League has been particularly disheartening, earning just one point from two games. Now, they face their toughest challenge yet, going up against the formidable Al Nassr, the top team in their group.
Al Nassr vs Al Duhail pick: Al Nassr to win and cover the -1.5 AH spread
Al Nassr’s current form is outstanding, having won 11 out of their last 12 games across all competitions. Their exceptional efficiency is evident, having scored an impressive 41 goals during this period, averaging 3.42 goals per game. However, considering their offensive potential, these achievements should come as no surprise.
Al Duhail has only managed to secure victory in two out of their last six matches, both of which were in the domestic league. In the AFC Champions League, they have only accumulated one point from two games and are yet to score a goal. In contrast, Al Nassr achieved triumph in both of their matches against the same opponents (Istiqlol Dushanbe and Persepolis) in the AFC Champions League, scoring a total of five goals.
We believe that Al Nassr is a superior team and, considering their better form and home-field advantage, they are likely to secure another easy win.

Al Nassr team news
Based on reliable sources, it has been reported that Ali Lajami, a prominent central defender, has sustained a hamstring injury that will result in an extended period of absence. Consequently, we can anticipate Abdulelah Al-Amri to take his place in the starting lineup.
However, Marcelo Brozovic, who was absent from the last match against Damac FC, has received medical clearance after undergoing some tests. He is expected to return to the starting lineup for the upcoming Al Duhail game.
David Osipa, the 35-year-old Colombian goalkeeper, will continue to be sidelined due to an elbow injury that has kept him out of action since January 2023.
