Al-Ettifaq will host Al-Nassr at the EGO Stadium on Tuesday in another round of the 2025-26 Saudi Pro League campaign. The hosts will be looking to cause an upset and put an end to the visitors' perfect record.
Al-Ettifaq were the better side for the majority of their game against Al-Riyadh on Christmas Day and took advantage of the hosts being reduced to 10 men in the second half to secure a 2-0 win. The Knights of Ad-Dahna have had a decent start to the season, with four wins and three draws from 10 games, and will hope to challenge the league favorites this midweek.
Al-Nassr will be focused on retaining their place at the top of the league table and hopefully extending the four-point gap between them and second-placed Al-Hilal when they visit Dammam on Tuesday.
The league leaders cruised to an easy 3-0 win over Al-Okhdood on Saturday, with talisman Cristiano Ronaldo taking center stage with a first-half brace, marking their 10th league win in 10 games this season and their eighth consecutive victory across all competitions.
