Now suddenly situation is not good at the Al Nassr with they are having three bad results in last three games first they ended draw against the bottom side team Al Hazem and concede four goals after this they lost against Al Ain in the UAE, and now they are having defeat against another weak side Al Raed which ended their hopes for the title because now we have difference of 12 points and Al Hilal is still undefeated into league which is going to help them for keeping things at the top level with their chances to win AFC Champions League is also high because they are having good squad and their performance is also good which is helping them for staying at the top in all competitions.

Metrovic having not ideal performance in last game as missed penalty and disallowed goal but still he was able to score goal at the end through penalty with this now his tally is 20 which is good start of his career here in this league.

Al-Nassr's match against Al-Raed was unexpected, Al-Nassr actually lost with a score of 1-3 and I bet on Al-Nassr winning because I believe Al-Nassr is a strong team and is currently ranked runner up in the Saudi league while Al-Raed is currently Al-raed is in 13th place, which is of course very different from Al-NASSR's ranking.

I think Luis Castro must be able to make Al-Nassr's performance good again and I see that the Al-Nassr players are not able to take full advantage of opportunities so that in the end they don't produce many goals and I also see Ronaldo performance His performance is not good and he is always unable to take full advantage of opportunities.

However, Al-Raed's performance was very good and I saw that Al-Raed's defense was very strong, but I saw that Al-Nassr's defense was not strong enough and in my opinion Al-Nassr's failure to get points meant that Al-Hilal had greater potential. to become champions because the point difference is of course still far from Al-Nassr. If you look at Al-Nassr's current condition, it is certainly very difficult for them to compete with Al-Hilal and become champions.

now Al-hilal is playing against Al-riyadh and the score is still 0-0 and we'll see whether Al-hilal will win or not and now the first half is over and the score is still 0-0. I think in the second half Al-hilal has the potential to score a goal and win the match.

They have nothing to do to beat Al Hilal in Saudi Professional League and the title goes to Al Hilal already. If they want to compete with Al Hilal or with Al Itithad that I believe will come back to compete for the title in a next season, Al Nassr will have to improve their defense area. If their defense continues to be weak, they will continue to lose points and will be less competitive against Al Hilal next season again.

A power of a team belongs to all players in the team, from main squad to substitutions on bench. Only Cristiano Ronaldo is not enough to make a power of a team to be better. He can provide goals but to win a match, a team need good midfield and defense areas to defend their goalkeeper and secure advantage for goals scored by their attacking players.

 A league proves to be very competitive when the points between the league leaders are pretty close and that ups the competition of the league. This is one of the qualities of a very good league. This is why the EPL still remains one of the great league across because of the fierce competition between the teams and You can see how hard all the teams in this league struggle not just for the league but also for European spot and even fight and compete to get out of the relegation spot.

 This competition helps the teams in the league grow fierce and they improve with time too and are able to compete across their league.The SPL started and made some good recruitments across Europe and the rest and these recruitments were essential so as to help build the teams for bigger competitions across the continent. And this recruitments have now proved to be worth every amount used to sign and get these players.

 Though the league is looking boring already as we have known the league winners already. This kind of result is what makes the league looks real boring as there’s no longer any competition in the league already. Ronado needs to win this league as the fans wants him to real win this league, though at the moment he’s not at a point of retirement. So it’s very possible for him to win the league but the team must try to improve and learn from their mistakes of this season and who knows, next season must be their luck.

There is nothing Al Nassr can do to force them to win the championship once more. Al Hilal leads them by 9 points and has one more game to play. If Al Hilal wins, they will lead Al Nassr by 12 points, which will be extremely difficult for Al Nassr to obtain. Al Nassr doesn't have much hope because Al Hilal is in a strong position to win every game they play. The match between Al Nassr and AL Raed yesterday surprised me because I was expecting Al Nassr to win easily; Al Raed is even a small team for Al Nassr. However, Al Nassr didn't perform well yesterday.

Even with Ronaldo playing, Al Raed still defeats Al Nassr, demonstrating that the team is capable of winning even without a legendary player like him. Tallisca did not play the match, and we can see how he plays the position and the position look yesterday, nobody else can move the ball in it the way he can, and Al Nassr's defence is also lacking; no one stays back when the attacking players have the ball, so when they do, they take advantage of the opportunity to score goals. All of Al Raed's goals from yesterday were scored with ease.

The championship title for this season is already far away and there is no longer any need to hope for it. Al Nassr fans who want to see Ronaldo lift the trophy only stay in the AFC Champions League competition. In the Saudi Professional League, that is no longer possible.

Talisca's role in the Al Nassr team really had an impact on the results obtained by Al Nassr. Regardless of the results obtained by Al Nassr against Al-Raed, Talisca's absence was very visible. There was even a technical error when Talisca was absent from the match, the coach played Ayman Ahmed in Talisca's position instead of playing Ghareep.
I noticed that Talisca and Ghareeb understand Ronaldo's game better.

It seems that Talisca's role is very important here and it can be seen since his absence in two matches, including last night's match, made it very difficult for Al-Nassr to score goals. I don't doubt the quality of the great players above, but unfortunately Al-Nassr has been dependent on Talisca's performance on the field for so long. He is one of the sources of goals for Al-Nassr and his absence makes it difficult for Al-Nassr to win.

Having Ronaldo alone is not enough for Al-Nassr and they need a younger striker like Talisca and we also know that his left foot finishing is the best in the team. The defeat against a weak team like Al-Raed was unexpected and Al-Nassr had to completely forget about its rivalry with Al-Hilal since last night's defeat. I think coach Luis Castro must have the courage to try new strategies when experiencing a deadlock in a match and not let it drag on too late.

Ronaldo totally aware he is unlikely to winnig SPL trophy, so he has been so wasteful in the game to help al hilal make the gap wider to the al nassr. I respected him so much for his terrible performance against al raed. Some articles have been reporting about how lame ronaldo in this game.
Ronaldo slowly loses his best form in al nassr, he is slowly turning into another flop. Al nassr is no longer in a strong position to get SPL trophy this season. Although nassr is still having last chance to get a trophy from AFC champion but im doubting nassr to get the trophy this season.

Nassr is going to put a fight against hilal at AFC champion only after it will beat al ain. It will be so crazy if al nassr loses against al ain. Messi fans will be ready to mock him.
That momentum was always the missed momentum to be watched when ronaldo and messi were still in la liga.

My prediction was totally wrong for this game, it's crazy to see ronaldo being so wasteful. It shows that his performance is slowly declining. Nassr must have worked even harder to ensure club will not be trophyless this season.

The league title is slipping away from Al-Nassr. They haven't won in their last three matches, which was quite unexpected. Despite having star players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Mane, Brozovic, and Laporte, it seems like they struggle without Talisca. His absence has exposed the team's reliance on him. This unexpected result against a less star-studded team has drawn criticism, with some calling the Al-Nassr team overrated.

First of all, sorry about my opinion which may be different from yours. If you feel that the competition in the Saudi Pro League is boring, it seems you are wrong because this is not only about the first position in the points table but also about the competition for the runner up position which is currently occupied by Al Nassr and in Below Al Nassr there is still Al Ahli who continues to try to be more stable to reach 2nd place to get a ticket to the AFC competition at the end of this season and what is even more interesting is the difference between Al Hilal, Al Nassr and Al Ahli, these 3 teams are the same. get a difference of 9 points while there are still 8 matches remaining which can provide unexpected surprises and this is where the competition for 1st place and runner up in the Saud Pro League becomes interesting.

The Saudi pro league just wants to try to grow this league to be able to get a lot of traffic to get the requirements to be included in the champions league list so I wouldn't be surprised if the Saudi pro league will continue to try to get quality European players even though they spend a lot of money but it's still true the goal.
Ronaldo has won so many titles in Europe and for the Saudi Pro League title, even though he won't get a title, it's not a big problem, he has definitely tried his best to help Al Nassr and we don't know what will happen in the next season because there are always changes.

What a wasteful Ronaldo. Al Nassr lost three points against Al Raed, and it's unbelievable. I must say that Al Nassr cannot win the AFC Champions League this season. I'm sorry, but Al Nassr is nothing. This Ronaldo club can't play even better in the game against Al Raed. It also helped Al Hilal secure the SPL trophy even early on.


Al Raed has been successfully battering Al Nassr, and I am so happy with the result. Al Hilal is ready to make the gap even wider again soon. Al Nassr will have a 12 point gap soon. Al Hilal will face Al Riyadh, which was also a weak club.
I'm sure that betting on Al Hilal is the best choice for the upcoming game. The SPL trophy is getting even closer to Al Hilal. I'm sorry to say, but Al Nassr is starting to be a bottle club. It was not performing consistently when Tallisca left the club.

Ronaldo can do nothing to help his club win the game. He has been so wasteful in the game. I'm so happy with the result, it makes Al Hilal have no good competitors in all competitions. Al Hilal can secure the AFC Champions League trophy soon.
Multiple trophies are getting even closer for Al Hilal. Thanks to the scouting team for bringing Mitrovic to the club. He was the best striker.


Mitrovic can still have a chance to surpass ronaldo but let's continue to talk about the next game.

Here's betting odds

Al riyadh 15 vs 1.13 al hilal



The safe bet must be al hilal to win the game but the odds is too small. Al Hilal may probably win the game, but a total of over 2,75 as the minimum bet is quite risky. I think that's a wise decision to take al hilal as my bet.

Losing at home with a score of more than 2 goals is a bad thing, especially if the team has players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Mane, Brozovic and Laporte.

If you lose like that at home, it feels like all the ways we want to change, such as changing and adjusting tactics for a while, are difficult to accept, even though changing and adjusting tactics for the next match is the best way.
The results obtained by Al Nassr will continue to be discussed because the team that beat them was not a star-studded team.

This was a result that was very unexpected and certainly caused disappointment for their fans who hoped that this team would be able to perform well to get three points, but what happened was the opposite.
The away team, which only had around 28% possession of the ball, was actually more effective in maximizing every opportunity that existed, because of the 7 attempts, 5 managed to threaten Al-Nassr's goal with 3 succeeding in scoring goals, while Al-Nassr, which had 16 attempts, only 3 succeeded in threatening. Al-Raed's goal and what's worse is that only 1 can be a goal.
This time, Al-Nassr's defense, which was easily penetrated by the away team, was the cause of defeat, plus their midfielders were unable to make the perfect assist for Al-Nassr's striker to take advantage of.

This was indeed a bad performance, especially when they faced a relatively weak team, so in two matches losing five points was enough to make their chances of continuing to stick to Al-Hilal closed because it was quite impossible to see Al-Nassr move at the top of the standings. .
Meanwhile, in my opinion, their opportunities in other competitions are still quite open because usually there will be different performances in different competitions, and the Asian Champions League has the opportunity to reach the semifinals because it only requires a win with a two goal margin and in my opinion Al-Nassr can still catch it, but we can't judge about the semifinals yet because it could be that they will be more alert to perform well in the Asian Champions League to be able to win the title this season, because this is their only chance.

It is true that complex competition which is quite tense usually occurs when each club only has a small difference in points so there is still a shift in position. Apart from that, what makes it even more interesting is when the first and second places are still competing fiercely in the title race, as is the case with Al Nassr, Al Hilal and Al Ittihad at the start of this season they played very well but now the league is a little boring when it is almost at its peak because there are no longer changes in positions with a fairly large point difference.

The Saudi Pro League has indeed invested most of their money in European star players to increase their popularity and also make the league competition even fiercer, like the top three clubs currently they are still competing fiercely but yes, because now the point difference with Al Hilal is quite far, we can already guess who who will be the champions, Al Hilal, are playing very tough and haven't even suffered a single defeat so far so I'm pretty sure they can get it.

It won't be complete if Ronaldo doesn't have the Saudi League trophy, even though he has to wait for next season, that doesn't matter because he hasn't decided to retire yet and his performance is still quite good, but Al Nassr must improve all the players' performance and improve their defense because Al Nassr's current weakness is defense. they are not as strong as Al Hilal therefore if al nassr wants to win they have to learn from this season's mistakes.

Yeah this season Al-Nassr must give up to get the title because of 2 recent poor results, there is no way to pursue Al-Hilal because they are still consistent with continuing to collect points without defeat. The competition between the two teams is not only in the Saudi Pro League but also in the Asian Champions League, do you think Al-Nassr can beat Al-Hilal in the Asian Champions League? I personally not sure but Al-Nassr must be able to do it to restore all doubts.

In addition to the competition between the club, we will also wait for the competition between players to compete for the top scorer, here Ronaldo and Aleksandar Mitrović are competing to be the best for a while Ronaldo leads with 22 goals while the nearest competitor is only 19 goals. In the last 2 matches Ronaldo did not score goals and Aleksandar Mitrović can still add more goals in the 23rd match.

The can still win the second leg since it will be happening at hom for al nassr. The chance is still big enough to get into the further stage against al hilal. Tallisca will not play in the upcoming game, and it sounds like a disaster for the club since it must be losing one of the important players owned by the club.
Al Nassr can only rely upon Ronaldo to carry the club, but I'm worried that Ronaldo will not be able to help his club get into the next stage against Al Hilal if club still performs badly like the first leg. Even though Al Nassr will qualify for the next game, it will lose against Al Hilal.
Al nassr faced al hilal many times and this club was consistently losing against hilal. I think that the win against Al Ain doesn't matter since Al Hilal will prevent Nassr from getting into the AFC Champion League.


Doing rotation sometimes gives you bad or good results, and I would like to call that a gamble. Al Nassr was losing aggregate against Al Ain, and playing defensively is just a suicide for the club. Al Nassr needs to attack its opponent fully since the first half was started.
I don't see a player that can replace tallisca's position. Not even a single player capable enough to surpass what tallisca did in the club except ronaldo.

Al Hilal are very strong and have better performances generally than Al Nassr so it's unfair for Al Hilal if they won't win Saudi Professional League. With a latest loss of Al Nassr, losing 1 - 3 at a home stadium, the competition for Saudi Professional League title ends here. It is impossible for Al Nassr to cath up Al Hilal as they began to get some worse performances and results recently when they actually need to have perfect results to wait for dropped points from Al Hilal.

Their competitor Al Hilal did not drop point and Al Nassr lost some points that make the race becomes worse for them.

Our predictions turned out to be wrong, friends. Because it turned out that Al Nasr lost badly to Al Raed with a score of 3-1. I personally don't understand why in recent weeks Al Nasr has always experienced unsatisfactory results in every match. In fact, if you look at ball control and the opportunities created, Al Nasr is far superior to the clubs they are opposing. For example, last night's match between Al Nasr and Al Raed. From the first minute to the final minute of the second half, Al Nasr continued to dominate the game. But unfortunately, even though Al Nasr dominated the game, unfortunately Ronaldo and his friends couldn't score any additional goals, apart from the goal scored by Yahya in the 24th minute.

Honestly, right now I'm a little disappointed with Al Nasr's performance. Because even against lower level clubs, Al Nasr suffered defeat. So how do you want to compete with big clubs like Al Hilal or with clubs that have entered the Asian Champions League? Maybe with the poor performance shown recently, this season it is unlikely that Al Nasr will win any trophies. Because what I see is that the performance of the Al Nasr players currently tends towards less solidity among the players. Ronaldo also couldn't do much in last night's match, so the point is that Al Nasr must be able to learn from his current mistakes. In order to improve performance in the future. Because I feel it's a shame, because Al Nasr has bought a lot of expensive players this season, but the results obtained are less than optimal.

It cannot be denied that Al-Nassr's defeat today by Al-Raed has also made it clear who will lift the trophy in the SPL this season. I don't know what happened at Al-Nassr but this club seems to have lost stability in their defense. So there are always several gaps that can be exploited by their opponents.

Al-hilal will now play more comfortably because they have seen Al-nassr lose points. And Al-hilal just needs to ensure their superiority by winning again today's match against Al-riyadh.

SPL doesn't appear to be easy as we all see it. SPL is not over yet, we have the necessary winnings that ought to be obtained by these elite teams but due to their inconsistent stats, they stumbled and missed out on these chances. Despite the presence of Cristiano Ronaldo, they keep throwing  themselves to become victims against these oppositions. Al Nassr keeps dropping points to clubs that they're supposed to dominate and win, everything doesn't come as normal and we have watched how the big winnings moves. While Al Hilal keeps topping with good points.
