Tue Jan 21 14:10:00 UTC 2025: ## Al-Nassr Seek Away Win Against Resurgent Al-Khaleej
**Qatif, Saudi Arabia** – Al-Nassr, seeking their first away victory of 2025, face a tough challenge against a resurgent Al-Khaleej on Tuesday at the Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium. Al-Khaleej, riding high after a 3-0 win over Al-Orobah, currently sits seventh in the Saudi Pro League, showcasing a significant improvement over their performance last season. Their recent form, including multiple goal wins in consecutive games, makes them a formidable opponent.
Al-Nassr, on the other hand, have struggled recently, managing only one win in their last four matches across all competitions. This dip in form has seen them fall out of the top four and miss out on an automatic AFC Champions League spot. Key injuries to players like Mohamed Simakan, Ayman Yahya, and Sami Al-Najei further complicate their situation. While Al-Nassr boasts a strong veteran core, their recent away performances have been underwhelming, with two consecutive winless matches.
Al-Khaleej also face injury concerns, with Marwan Al-Haidari and Abdullah Al-Fahad potentially sidelined. However, their recent home form is encouraging, having won four of their last five matches at the Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium and scoring 12 goals in those games.
This clash promises a fascinating encounter between a struggling giant and a confident underdog. Al-Nassr’s experience and star power will be tested against Al-Khaleej’s improved form and home advantage. The match kicks off on Tuesday, with both teams hoping to secure crucial points in their pursuit of league ambitions.
