Following speculation regarding his fitness, captain Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to lead the line for the league leaders as they seek to move one step closer to the domestic title. Despite being substituted late in their recent continental victory, the Portuguese forward has been cleared to play and was pictured in final training sessions with the squad.
Concerns over Ronaldo’s availability surfaced after he was withdrawn in the 81st minute during Al-Nassr’s 5–1 demolition of Al-Ahli in the AFC Champions League Two semi-finals last week. However, club sources and recent training reports indicate the substitution was a precautionary measure rather than a result of a serious hamstring injury.
