Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to start when Al-Nassr travel to Al-Feiha in the Saudi Pro League on Sunday (April 9). The Riyadh-based side will want to build on their convincing 5-0 win over Al-Adalah last time around.

Ronaldo had an impressive outing against Al-Adalah, netting a brace. Brazilian forward Talisca also scored twice, while Ayman Yahya chipped in as well. Ronaldo has been one of Al-Nassr's key performers since his arrival from Manchester United. The Portuguese international should keep his place in the starting XI when Rudi Garcia's side travel to Al-Feiha.

The 38-year-old has struck a strong strike partnership alongside Talisca and should lead Al Nassr's attack alongside Abdulrahman Ghareeb. The former SL Benfica attacker continues to remain the club's leading goalscorer this season despite Ronaldo's arrival. Talisca has netted 17 goals in 19 games.

Al-Nassr are second in the league, trailing leaders Al-Ittihad by a point, with 52 points from 22 games. Rudi Garcia's side are looking to win their first league title since 2019.

Ronaldo will look to win his first trophy in Saudi Arabia by guiding his side to the Saudi Pro League title. Leaders Al-Ittihad, though, have been in great form and have not lost since early January

Al-Feiha, meanwhile, are languishing in tenth place in the standings, having accumulated 24 points from 22 outings. They're on a three-game winless run, losing twice.
