Al Nassr vs. Al Raed prediction

With its petrodollars, the Saudi Pro League has attracted some of the top football talents in recent years. While Al Nassr’s star-studded line-up includes the likes of Ronaldo and Sadio Mane, Al Raed is one of the more modest clubs in the League.

It is unlikely they will be able to match up to the quality and depth of hosts Al Nassr in Thursday’s League opener.

Prediction: Al Nassr 3-1 Al Raed
