Damac: Current form and team news
Damac have all but lost hope to finish in the league's top five, and if their form keeps declining, even the top half of the league table could become unreachable when the season ends.
Recently, Damac failed to score against the worst team of the season, Al Hazem. Moreover, since the start of the year, Damac have managed just one win!
Some would explain Damac's struggles in front of goal with Assan Ceesay's injury. However, when one player's absence turns a decent team into a mediocre one, you know the problem is bigger than just one injury.
Al Nassr: Current form and team news
Is the crisis gone? Al Nassr's recent games suggest so: 5-1 against Al Tai and 8-0 against Abha, with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring a hat-trick in each of those matches.
Of course, those were the games against bottom-half teams, where Al Nassr weren't really put to the test. However, you can't deny that Cristiano & Co. are scoring way more than before.
Interestingly, both huge wins were secured without one of Al Nassr's best scorers, Talisca. The Brazilian is sidelined with a muscle injury and his return date is yet to be defined.

Damac vs Al Nassr: Prediction and betting tip
On paper, Al Nassr should smash Damac but shortly after tomorrow's game, they will have to face Al Hilal in the Saudi Arabia Supercup. It's safe to think that the visitors will prefer to save some energy for the cup clash.
That's why we believe fans aren't going to see a lot of goals on Friday. A couple of strikes should be enough for Cristiano & Co., provided their defence is solid.
Our betting tip: Goals total under 3,5 (Megapari odds – 1.72)
