Al-Taawoun and Al-Nassr will square off in the 2024–25 Saudi Super Cup semi-final this coming Wednesday at Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Sports City. The victor of this contest advances to play Al-Hilal or Al-Ahli in the championship match on August 17. Now let's discuss the prediction.
The third and fourth-placed teams in the league standings were to be featured in the Super Cup because Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr were the King Cup and Saudi Pro League champions and runners-up, respectively.
Thus, Al-Taawoun secured the last position by placing fourth in the previous season with 59 points, which included a record of 16 victories, 11 draws, and 7 losses in their 34 games played. When the Wolves last participated in this competition, Al-Nassr defeated them on penalties in 2020.
Al-Nassr triumphed 4-1 in their most recent meeting with these teams in December of last year, while Al-Taawoun prevailed 2-0 in the rematch earlier in the season.
Al-Nassr, on the other hand, will be itching to get their hands on this trophy after finishing the previous season without any hardware. They only made it to the AFC Champions League quarterfinals as Al-Hilal defeated them to win both the league and King Cup titles.
Even though the Knights of Najd are currently the favorites according to the bookies, these teams have split their last four meetings with two victories apiece, thus a certain outcome is not guaranteed.
In seven of their final ten games of the previous season, Al-Taawoun scored at least once.In the last three meetings between these two clubs, goals were scored by both sides.In their last five games of the previous campaign, Al-Nassr were unable to maintain a clean sheet.
In seven of Al-Nassr's previous ten competitive games, goals were scored by both sides.In their final 10 games of the previous season, Al-Nassr only managed two clean sheets.
Al-Nassr will be motivated to advance to the competition's final after a trophy-less 2023–24 season, but they can't undervalue Al-Taawoun, who have performed admirably in this match the previous two seasons.
Yes, Al-Alami should have a minor advantage because of their talented lineup, but we still think the Wolves will score at least once in this game.
