The 39-year-old star missed Al-Nassr’s last match.
Al Nassr are back in action tonight when they host Al Taawoun at Al-Awwal Park in tonight’s Round of 16 clash in the King Cup of Champions.
The Saudi side will meet Al Taawoun second time after beating them 2-0 in the league match, which Cristiano Ronaldo missed due to work overload. They will once again take on the same opponent in the Round of 16 King Cup of Champions.
Al Nassr will expect to continue their winning trend when they host the same opponent in the tournament as both sides will battle for the quarterfinal spot in the King Cup of the Champions.
However, besides the tournament one of the hot topics would be whether Ronaldo will be fit to play in the match as he missed their previous game in the Saudi Pro League due to workload.
He has been persistently put up an excellent performance for Al-Nassr despite being at 39. Ronaldo has been impressive for the Saudi-based side and has produced nine goals in 11 matches across all competitions.
Will Cristiano Ronaldo play tonight?
After his outstanding performances for both club and nation since the beginning of the season, Cristiano Ronaldo has been cleared to play in the forthcoming match against Al-Taawoun. His workload management is said to be the reason he missed Al-Nassr’s most recent SPL match. However, he is probably going to feature in this Round of 16 clash.
He has put fine numbers this season and will hope to take his tally to more goals. But with time we won’t often see him play in every match given his age and the rest he will need to avoid getting lethargic.
He has been Al Nassr’s most decisive player in big matches and with another massive game tonight the Portuguese will be ready to demonstrate his goalscoring exploits in front of the net today.
