"Cristiano Ronaldo made a goalscoring return to the Al-Nassr squad in their last Pro League game, and will aim to fire them to three points against Al-Hazem tomorrow. Ronaldo's self-imposed exile - due to his unhappiness at the club's lack of transfer activity in January compared to title rivals Al-Hilal - saw him miss two league games but his presence this weekend will help Al-Nassr's challenge towards the top of the table."
"They head into the weekend in third place, a point behind Al-Ahli (who've played a game more) and Al-Hilal. Jorge Jesus' side maintained their momentum with a 2-0 victory at Al-Fateh last time out. Five-time Ballon d'Or winner Ronaldo struck from Sadio Mane's cross to put his side ahead in the 18th minute at the Prince Abdullah Bin Jalawi Stadium, where wideman Ayman Yahya fired in a superb finish as part of a move from a throw-in to complete the scoring 12 minutes from time."
Cristiano Ronaldo returned to score for Al-Nassr in their last Pro League match and is set to face Al-Hazem aiming for three points. Ronaldo missed two league games during a self-imposed exile over frustration at limited January transfer activity compared with title rivals Al-Hilal. Al-Nassr sit third, one point behind Al-Ahli and Al-Hilal, after a 2-0 win at Al-Fateh where Ronaldo and Ayman Yahya scored. Al-Hazem are 11th, having won two of their last five including a 2-1 victory over Al-Okhdood. Al-Nassr are almost fully fit with Sami Al-Najei absent. The match kicks off at 7pm UK time and streams on the Pro League YouTube channel. Predicted line-ups show a three-man defence for Al-Hazem and Omar Al Somah as their key attacking threat.
