Cristiano Ronaldo to Score First
In the last round against Damac, Cristiano Ronaldo once again proved his class by scoring a hat trick in the first half of the game, which turned out to be the final result.
With those three goals, Ronaldo now has eight goals in five matches in Saudi Pro League, to which he also added two assists. So, if there is a question whether Ronaldo will score against Al Batin, we believe that the answer is yes and our first Al Nassr vs Al Batin prediction is for Ronaldo to score the first goal of the game.
Al Nassr to Win with Handicap (-2)
Given the simple fact that Al Nassr is currently first in the league and chasing the title, while Al Batin is already written off as they are last in the standings with six points from eigtheen games, it's clear who the favourite is here.
In addition to this, Al Nassr is also hosting the match, so we expect to see an easy and convincing win for them. So, our second Al Nassr vs Al Batin prediction is for Al Nassr to win by three or more goals.

Al Nassr
In the last six games in the league, Al Nassr has four wins and two draws. In fact, Cristiano Ronaldo's team only lost once this season in Saudi Pro League even though they already played eighteen games.

Meanwhile, Al Nassr will be without goalkeeper David Ospina once again since he is out for the season with an injury.

Rossi – Konan, Madu, Al-Amri, Al-Ghanam- Gustavo, Al-Khaibari – Talisca, Yahya, Ghareeb – Ronaldo
Al Batin
