AFC Champions League Elite - Preview - MD4: Al Nassr Club (KSA) v Al Ain FC (UAE)

Riyadh: Al Nassr Club can expect a tough test when they welcome Al Ain FC to the King Saud University Stadium for their AFC Champions League Elite™ 2024/25 tie on Tuesday.

Al Nassr will head into the match on seven points while Al Ain have yet to get into high gear with just a solitary draw to show after three matches.

Friday's 1-1 draw with Al Hilal SFC not only left Al Nassr six points behind their bitter rivals in the Saudi Pro League standings but also stretched their winless run to three matches.

The run includes elimination from the King Cup of Champions while Cristiano Ronaldo has not scored in four matches, adding to Al Nassr's woes.

Al Ain, who lifted the AFC Champions League 2023/24 title, will be determined to bounce back from their 5-4 defeat to Al Hilal two weeks ago.

While Hernan Crespo's side went toe-to-toe with the four-time Asian champions, they had to concede to the potent Al Hilal attack but can't afford even a draw on Tuesday with the AFC Champions League Elite reaching the half-way stage.
