Al Nassr will be playing at home in the 23rd matchweek of the Saudi Pro League against Al Hazem.
Despite being third in the league, Al Nassr is only one point behind league leaders Al Hilal with 21 matches played. Al Nassr has won their last nine games across all competitions and have won their last seven Saudi Pro League games.
The team also welcomed back Cristiano Ronaldo, who remains Al Nassr’s top goalscorer in the league with 18 goals. Ronaldo refused to play in the Saudi Pro League for Al Nassr and missed two consecutive games.

Ronaldo returned to play for Al Nassr last weekend against Al Fateh FC in the Saudi Pro League, and he scored his 18th league goal in the first half.
Despite returning to action for Al Nassr, Ronaldo was taken off before the match ended and missed the AFC Champions League Two Round of 16 match against Arkadag during the week. This caused concern among fans that the Portuguese striker would miss another league game.
Cristiano Ronaldo is set to play in Al Nassr vs Al Hazem
Despite missing the match earlier this week against Arkadag in the AFC Champions League Two competition, Cristiano Ronaldo is set to play against Al Hazem today in the Saudi Pro League.
Ronaldo missed the previous match as Al Nassr head coach Jorge Jesus decided to rest the striker and other key players in the squad.
Ronaldo is expected to start the match against Al Hazem. Ronaldo scored against Al Hazem earlier this season, when Al Nassr defeated Al Hazem 2-0 away from home on October 25, 2025.
