Al Nassr will be looking to stretch their advantage in the Saudi Pro League title race this week as they head to rivals Al Ittihad.
Al Ittihad are currently trailing Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. by two points, in second place, and a win for Al Nassr could prove decisive in the title run-in.
Ronaldo's side were forced to ride their luck against rock bottom Al Batin last time out, with three added time goals eventually turning the game on its head to win 3-1 in Riyadh, as Al Ittihad won 3-0 away at Al Khaleej.
