Al-Zawraa vs Al-Nassr: Prediction for the Match on October 01, 2025

Al-Nassr face another familiar opponent, Al-Zawraa, in the second match of the 2025-26 AFC Champions League Two at Al-Zawraa Stadium, looking to build on their impressive start to the new season. Last season, Al-Nassr had a strong run in the AFC Champions League, but they were eliminated from the AFC Champions League Elite in the semifinals by Kawasaki Frontale, who eventually lost the prestigious title to Al-Ahli in the finals. 

Al-Zawraa, on the other hand, kick-started their campaign with a 0-2 victory against Goa. However, they face a more formidable team in Al-Nassr on Tuesday, and they must be prepared for whatever comes their way. Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr has the upper hand in this game, and we believe they will secure a confident victory. Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Al-Zawraa is yet to win a game in the just commenced Iraq Stars League, with two draws in the two games they’ve played so far. They are struggling at the near-bottom of the league table. In the AFC Champions League, Al-Zawraa won their opening game by 2 goals to nil, and they will be hoping to build on that impressive start as they take on Al-Nassr on Wednesday.

Last season, Al-Nassr lost the opportunity to make it to the finals of the AFC Champions League after they were knocked out by Kawasaki Frontale in the semi-finals. Kawasaki Frontale later lost in the final to another Saudi Arabian team, Al-Ahli. They enter this game on the back of a phenomenal performance against rivals Al-Ittihad in their last league game. Al-Nassr took total control of that game with first-half goals from Sadio Mane and Cristiano Ronaldo. 

Al-Nassr eased past Istiklol in the AFC Champions League Two. The Knights won by 5 goals to nil with goals from five different Al-Nassr players. Ronaldo was not available for the game due to personal reasons, but his team prevailed regardless. Al-Nassr will be hoping for a positive outcome in their first AFC Champions League game of the season.

Al-Nassr already started the season on a good note as they remain firm at the top of the league table after three games played. Al-Nassr already has 21 goals across the five games they’ve played this season, with four clean sheets and a throne at the top of the league table. Consistency is of utmost importance here, and the boys must remain focused if they intend to lift the trophy by the end of the season.

Al-Nassr: Lineup

Jorge Jesus has brought a different kind of flair to the team with the addition of Kingsley Coman, making runs from the right, and Joao Felix playing behind Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo is back with the team, but we doubt if he will travel to Iraq for this game for personal reasons. 

Player to watch out for: Joao Felix 

In the possible absence of Cristiano Ronaldo, Joao Felix easily takes his place, with 5 goals already in the Saudi Pro League this season; he is one goal higher than Ronaldo on goals in the league.

🔖 Al-Nassr Probable starting lineup (4-2-3-1)

Bento – Mohamed Simakan, Inigo Martinez, Ayman Yahya, Boushal— Marcelo Brozovic, Angelo – Kingsley Coman, Sadio Mane, Al-Khaibari – Joao Felix 

👤 Head coach: Jorge Jesus
