Al-Nasr

WDLWWL

Al-Nasr will be hoping to bounce back here after a 2-0 UAE Pro League losing effort in their last game against Shabab Al-Ahli Dubai.

Sardar Azmoun (76') and Saeid Ezatolahi (80') scored for Shabab Al-Ahli Dubai.

It has been seldom in recent times that Al-Nasr have shown defensive steel. The reality is that Al-Nasr have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 games, letting in 11 goals during that time. We will have to find out whether or not that trend will be sustained here.

Ittihad Kalba
