Al-Nassr v Al-Fayha: Line-ups, stats and preview

Al-Nassr vs Al-Fayha Preview

Al-Nassr will host Al-Fayha, seeking to bounce back from their midweek cup exit. Jorge Jesus' team was defeated 2-1 by Al-Ittihad in the King's Cup last 16, despite playing against 10 men for most of the second half.

This loss was a significant blow, particularly for Cristiano Ronaldo, as another chance to win a major trophy with the Saudi club slipped away. However, Ronaldo may have better luck in the Pro League, where Al-Nassr has made a perfect start with six wins from six games, leading the standings with a three-point lead over Al-Taawoun.

Our problem today was not Cristiano, but tiredness and exhaustion.

Jorge Jesus defended Cristiano Ronaldo from criticism after the Al-Ittihad game, where the Portugal striker missed an excellent chance to equalize.
