AL-NASSR fans on social media have expressed their reactions to the team’s start XI for their clash against al-Raed. The two sides are ready to meet in the Saudi Pro League at King Abdullah Sport City Stadium Thursday (January 30) evening.

Before the clash, al-nassr and al-Raed sit in the fourth and fifteenth position on the league table respectively. The knights of Najd have collected 35 points after 17 league matches, while their colleagues have got 14 points after the same number of games.

Stefano Pioli’s men are currently eight points for league leaders al-Hilal, who has also played 17 league matches.

The layout for the clash has been released and Talisman Cristiano Ronaldo will again lead the line to his side.

However, some notable players such as Abdulrahman Ghareeb, Salem al-Jajdi and Saad Haqawi were omitted from Matchday Squad.

Pioli’s decision to exclude the above -mentioned players from match day surprised fans and they went to X (formerly Twitter) to give their opinions on the lineup. An X -User wrote:

Can Cristiano Ronaldos al-Nassr still win the Saudi Pro League tital race?

Al-nassr continues their hunt for their first Saudi Pro League title since Cristiano Ronaldo’s arrival in 2023.

They last won the league title in the 2018/19 season, but have been runners-up three times in the following seasons. They finished in the second position behind the winners al-Hilal last season and could miss the coveted trophy again this year.

While there are half the season left to play still, an eight-point gorge could prove to be invincible for al-nassr. League leaders al-Hilal have dropped points in only three games this season and seems to be preserving their title.
