Al-Nasr football team is set to face Al-Bataeh in the 20th round of the Saudi Pro League, aiming to get back to winning ways and reconcile with their fans before Eid al-Fitr after a difficult period of inconsistent results at home. 'Al-Nasr' hopes to use tomorrow's match to break their long streak without a win at the Al Maktum Stadium and improve their position in the standings. The team's last home victory was on November 21, 2025, when they defeated Al-Dhafra. This means that as they face Al-Bataeh, the team has not won at home for 116 days in the league. This season, Al-Nasr is experiencing a clear crisis in home results, having collected 26 points in the league so far, with only 10 at home (from 2 wins, 4 draws, and 3 defeats). Their away results have been relatively better, with 16 points from 4 wins and 4 draws. Additionally, the team was eliminated from the Crown Prince Cup in the round of 16 after losing at home to Bani Yas 0-2, a result that increased the pressure on the team this season. In the Professional League Cup, Al-Nasr was knocked out of the semi-finals after losing the first leg at home 0-3, before winning the return leg 2-0, but the victory was not enough to overcome the first-leg defeat, leading to their exit from the tournament. Overall, since the start of the season on August 16, 2025, Al-Nasr has achieved only 3 wins in all competitions over 214 days. The team struggles to convert chances into goals at home against teams that rely on defense and counter-attacks, in addition to the pressure from fans and declining confidence after a series of setbacks. In away games, however, the team performs better as opponents tend to play more offensively, which allows Al-Nasr to find opportunities and score goals away from the pressure of the home crowd. Most of Al-Nasr's positive results are achieved away from home.
