The Saudi Arabian outfit were impressive in their 3-1 win over another Qatar side, Al Gharafa, on Matchday Five with Cristiano Ronaldo leading their charge with two goals to become only the second Al Nassr player to hit double digits in the AFC Champions League.

The Portuguese star netted both goals in Friday's 2-0 defeat of Damac in their Saudi Pro League tie and having not lost to Al Sadd in the last four of their eight meetings, Al Nassr will be confident of taking the points.

Al Sadd, however, are also on a seven-match unbeaten run on the continental stage and will be boosted by their battling performance against Al Hilal SFC, which ended with the teams sharing the points.

Seeking a knockout stage spot for the first time in four seasons, Al Sadd will relish testing themselves against Al Nassr in their bid to lift the continental title for a second time after having emerged the AFC champions League™ winners in 2011.

Venue: King Saud University Stadium (Riyadh)

Kick-off: Monday, 21:00 (UTC+3)
