Thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo’s impressive 13 goals, Al Nassr has had a strong season in the Saudi Pro League. However, they still sit in second place behind their rival Al Hilal on the league table. On December 1st, Al Nassr will face off against Al Hilal with a chance to narrow the four-point gap between them. This opportunity may become even more advantageous for Al Nassr as Al Hilal’s star player Aleksandar Mitrovic could potentially miss the game due to his own injury setbacks.
