Preview: Al Ittihad vs Al Nassr FC
This is an exciting showdown between league leaders Al Ittihad and Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr to be best noted as one of the most awaited fixtures of the season. This exciting clash is part of Round 13 of the Saudi Pro League, which will be played on Friday at King Abdullah Sports City.
Al Ittihad is a strong contender in the title race this season after making a really strong start with new head coach Laurent Blanc, currently leading the standings with 33 points from 12 matches, two better than second-placed Al Hilal. With 11 wins and just one loss, it shows a marked improvement over last season.
Al Nassr, on the other hand, is a team not in great form, lagging behind its rivals by eight points going into Friday’s match. Their scoring has often been a concern with much dependence on Cristiano Ronaldo. This was evident in their midweek loss when Ronaldo was absent. If Stefan Pioli’s men are to keep in the title race, other players need to add to the goal tally since they currently lie third in the standings.
