The Portuguese star had to sit out in the last game.
In their Saudi Pro League match tonight, Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr, who are desperate to return to the top three, will try to make an impression when they play a strengthened Al-Shabab at Al-Awwal Park.
Al Nassr’s recent performances and outcomes have been disappointing, even though they have a number of European talents in their lineup. They have failed to remain consistent and secure wins.
Al Nassr’s defense, which conceded two goals or more in three of their previous four SPL games, has recently displayed serious defensive lapses. We can anticipate another high-scoring matchup here, with two sides that are hot on the attack but poor at the back.
In recent league games on their home field, the Riyadh Club has shown exceptional domination over Al Shabab, defeating them in three consecutive head-to-head matches with a total score of 11–4.
In addition to missing a fantastic opportunity to salvage their hopes of continuing their title quest, Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. were dropped out of the top three after a lackluster showing in their last match, losing narrowly to Al Orobah 2-1.
Will Cristiano Ronaldo play tonight?
After missing the last match against Esteghlal, Cristiano Ronaldo will start tonight’s match against Al-Shabab. Despite having Ronaldo, Al Nassr are still locked in fourth place and are vying for a top table spot following their most recent defeat in the league game.
Al Nassr will move closer to the top three teams in the SPL standings with a victory tonight, bringing their total points to 50.
If they are challenging for the title, they can only hope that teams above them drop points, which could see them reduce the gap and revive their title race. Ronaldo, who was rested for the last encounter, will be ready to lead his side’s attacking line tonight and spearhead them to a win.
