Damac Vs Al-Nassr

Al-Nassr is set to face Damac FC on Tuesday in a crucial Saudi Pro League matchday 29 encounter. The Knights of Najd are eager to rebound from a recent 2-1 defeat to Al Qadsiah, which ended their six-match unbeaten run across all competitions and dealt a significant blow to their title aspirations. This loss left them third in the standings with 57 points, trailing leaders Al Ittihad by eight points and second-placed Al Hilal by four, thereby intensifying the competition for AFC Champions League qualification spots.talkSPORT+1Diario AS+1

Despite the setback, Al-Nassr's away performance this season has been commendable, boasting nine victories, three draws, and only two defeats, making them the league's best travelers. They have also been prolific in attack, scoring 30 goals on the road, the second-highest in the league. Their resilience after setbacks is notable, having failed to win back-to-back away league matches only once this season.

Historically, Al-Nassr has dominated encounters with Damac, winning their last seven meetings. This includes a 2-0 victory in their most recent clash, where Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice, once from the penalty spot and once from open play, demonstrating his continued influence and goal-scoring prowess.Sportstar

Damac, on the other hand, recently secured a 3-1 win over Al Kholood, ending a two-game winless streak and marking only their second victory in 11 matches. This win lifted them to 11th place in the standings with 31 points, five points clear of the relegation zone. However, their home form has been inconsistent, with three losses in their last five home games, more than in their previous nine combined. They have recorded five wins, four draws, and five defeats at home, scoring 18 and conceding 20 goals.

Damac's attacking output has been a concern, having failed to score in six of their previous eight games before the win over Al Kholood. In that match, Georges-Kevin N'Koudou scored twice from the penalty spot, and Nicolae Stanciu added a third, showcasing their potential when in form. However, to maintain their buffer above the relegation zone, they must improve their home performances and consistency in front of goal.

As the match approaches, Al-Nassr will be without Cristiano Ronaldo, who is being rested ahead of their AFC Champions League quarterfinal against Yokohama Marinos. Sadio Mané will also miss the game due to suspension. Jhon Durán is expected to lead the attack in their absence.Diario AS

Given the stakes, both teams will be eager to secure a positive result. Al-Nassr aims to stay in contention for the title and secure a Champions League spot, while Damac seeks to distance themselves further from the relegation zone. The historical dominance of Al-Nassr over Damac and their superior away record suggest they have the upper hand, but Damac's recent win could provide them with a confidence boost.
