The Tigers Squad are the defending Saudi Pro League champions and have initiated their title defence on a positive note. Al Ittihad have won all of their first three league matches of the new season. Even though they will be at home, Karim Benzema and company will have a tough contest ahead.

The Jorge Jesus-led side are in flying form. Al Nassr have already defeated Al Ittihad recently in the Saudi Super Cup match.

Players to Watch

Karim Benzema (Al Ittihad)

The Frenchman will be back in action for Al Ittihad after a slight physical discomfort. Karim Benzema scored a hat-trick in his only game for the Tigers squad this season. He is going to play an important role in the attacking front for the hosts. Benzema was all their most consistent player last season.

Cristiano Ronaldo (Al Nassr)

The Portuguese talisman continues to perform for Al Nassr. CR7 has scored three goals in three Saudi Pro League appearances. Cristiano Ronaldo is going to be a menace to the opponent’s defence. He will be keen on engraving his name on the score sheet and once again leading his side to a win.
