Analysis and forecast for the match on matchday 15 of the Saudi Arabian championship “Al-Hilal” – “Al-Nasr” (12/01/2023)
The Pro League season is in full swing. On December 1, two matches will be played on matchday 15. In the last of them, the leaders -Al-Hilal and Al-Nasr- will measure their strength. The kick-off is scheduled for 9:00 p.m. Moscow time. The match will be directed by a team of referees headed by the well-known Sergei Karasev.
Al-Hilal leads the Saudi Arabian Championship standings. In 14 matches he did not suffer a single defeat. The “leaders” tied with Al Feikha (1:1) and Damak (1:1). During this period, they only conceded eight goals, the fewest of all, but scored 43.
Jorge Jesús’s team is also doing well in the AFC Champions League. They lead the classification in the group stage of the tournament. The difference with the second place, Navbakhor, is three points. Al-Hilal won four confident victories and also drew with Navbahor (1-1).
Malcolm and Aleksandar Mitrovic particularly contributed to the success. In 22 games with the “leaders” in all official tournaments, the Brazilian scored 12 goals and six assists. The Serbian, in turn, participated in 17 games, in which he scored 16 goals and gave four assists.
Malcolm and Mitrovic are coping well even without Al-Hilal’s main star Neymar, who was injured during the international break. The former Zenit striker is so good that several Premier League clubs are interested in transferring him. It is reported that a possible agreement could be finalized in January 2024.
Al-Nasr is in second place in the Pro League standings. The difference with Al-Hilal is four points. The gap could well have been smaller if the “world club” had not started the season with two losses in a row. In the last 12 rounds, he only lost points once – in the meeting with Abha (2:2).
In the AFC Champions League, Luis Castro’s men have already secured access to the playoffs. They achieved four effective victories and also tied with Persepolis (0-0). It is noteworthy that Al-Nasr spent most of the meeting with the Iranian club in the minority. Ali Lajami received a red card.
However, the match against Persepolis was remembered for another interesting fact. In the second minute of the match, Cristiano Ronaldo fell in the rival area and the referee immediately pointed to the penalty spot. However, the Portuguese acted nobly and admitted to the judge that the contact was insignificant. After the VAR review, the penalty was annulled.
If Ronaldo had converted this penalty, he would have already scored 49 goals in 2023. He would be level with Bayern’s leading striker, Harry Kane. The performance of the 38-year-old striker is impressive. It is clear that the rivals were not top-level clubs, but the statistics are still incredible.
By the way, it was Ronaldo who became the main hero of the Arab Champions Cup final, in which Al Nasr defeated Al Hilal (2-1 DV). He scored both goals. The next game will surely be more productive. We suggest betting on HP + TB 3.5 goals with an odds of 2.30.
The Arab Champions Cup final took place at the beginning of the season, when both teams were just getting used to the changes they had experienced in the summer. Since then, the chemistry between Al-Hilal and Al-Nasr’s forwards has greatly improved. In 14 meetings in the Pro League, the “world club” scored 39 goals, only the “leaders” had more.
It is also worth noting that the upcoming match is important not only for the Riyadh teams fighting for the gold medal in the championship, but also for Sergei Karasev. For the Russian referee, this is a good opportunity to revive a career that has declined after the Russian national team was suspended from participating in international tournaments.
Prediction and bet for the match of the 15th round of the Saudi Arabian championship “Al-Hilal” – “Al-Nasr” on December 1, 2023
The clubs have a very powerful attack. Between them, in 14 Pro League games, they scored up to 82 goals. Jorge Jesús and Luis Castro prefer efficient and offensive football. Therefore, there is every reason to believe that the match will be eventful and will be marked by a large number of goals scored by both sides.
Tender: both will score and the total will be more than 3.5 goals in 2.30.
