 HEAD-TO-HEAD

Al Nassr

While Al Nassr has been in great form since Ronaldo's arrival, their loss to Al Ittihad in the last round was a big one as the team is now one point behind Al Ittihad in the title race. So, Ronaldo and Al Nassr will have to keep on winning and hope for Al Ittihad to slip if they want to win the title this season.

Meanwhile, Al Nassr miss goalkeeper David Ospina since he is out for the season with an injury and Talisca who is still out as well.

Abha

With four losses and a draw in the last five games in the league, Abha is currently on one of their worst runs of the season and with the upcoming game for them being against Al Nassr away from home, it is likely going to continue. On the bright side, Abha remains safe from relegation at this time, with six points more than the first team in the relegation zone.

TEAM NEWS

Player to Watch: Cristiano Ronaldo

With the bad result from the last round against Al Ittihad hanging over their heads as they try to get back to the top, Al Nassr will have to win this match and all eyes will be pointed at Ronaldo.

So far, Cristiano Ronaldo scored eight goals and added two assists in seven games, which is a great haul, but his team hasn't been able to materialize on that, especially in some tougher games. Still, Ronaldo is the player to watch against Abha without any doubt.
