Al Nassr will resume their Saudi Pro League campaign on Saturday, hosting Al Fateh. After 19 rounds of play, the hosts are second in the standings and sit 17 points clear of seventh-placed Al Fateh. Al Nassr will be seeking to cut the gap between them and league leaders Al Hilal. They have amassed 46 points and sit seven points off the pace. Luis Castro’s men have won 15 times in the league and are currently on a six-match winning run across all competitions. The Knights of Najd returned to action in midweek after the month-long mid-season break. They defeated Al Fayha 1-0 away from home in the first leg of their round of 16 knockout tie. Al Nassr won the reverse match back in August 5-0.

Al Fateh are quite a distance from a Champions League qualifying spot but they will still have this as one of their targets. Slaven Bilic’s men have accumulated 29 points and find themselves 11 points adrift of the top three. They have struggled with a lack of consistency throughout the first leg and will hope this isn’t the case after the recess. The Sons of the Palm have won eight games and drawn a further five. Before the mid-season break, they had managed just one win in nine outings across all competitions and had lost five times. Al Fateh, who haven’t defeated Al Nassr since 2020, haven’t played a competitive match in 2024. Their last, a 0-0 draw with Al Akhdood, was played seven weeks ago.
