The Portugese star has scored 11 goals in the league this season.

Al-Nassr face Al Khaleej on Tuesday at Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium in Qatif in an attempt to win their first away game of 2025.

Al-Nassr’s performances and form have declined; in their last four games in all competitions, they have only won one. They are in fourth position after spending most of the season in third place. However, their top four spots could be in danger too as fifth place Al-Ahli are equal in points with Cristiano Ronalod’s side.

Despite dropping five points whilst leading the tournament in scoring, Stefano Pioli’s team are only two points behind Al Quadisiya for third place. Before this encounter, Nadi Al-Shams have only scored one goal in their previous two away league games and were winless.

They have 29 points after 15 Saudi Pro League games so far this season, five less than they had at this point last year. All the players need to step up as their hopes of winning the title are fading away and now their sole focus could turn to finishing in the top four this season.

Star player Ronaldo will be returning to action once again after failing to inspire his side to win in their previous Saudi Pro League outing. But will he be playing today?

Will Cristiano Ronaldo play tonight?

Ronaldo is fit and will look to continue his form and remain their top goalscorer this season with 11 goals in 14 matches in the league this season. He will be disappointed not to lead Al-Nassr to win against Al-Taawoun in the last match as they only settled for a draw after former Manchester City player Aymeric Laporte rescued a point for them.

Ronaldo’s side will once again play an away game and given their poor away record this season they will need to step up in this match in order to avoid slipping down from the fourth spot.

Ronaldo, who is on the verge of signing a new deal will look to make a difference once again.
