Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr will kickstart their 2024-25 Saudi Pro League campaign with a clash against Al Raed at the Al Awwal Park in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on Thursday, August 22.
The Al Nassr vs Al Raed 2024-25 Saudi Pro League match will begin at 11:30 PM (IST) and will be available for live streaming and telecast.
After finishing second in the standings and missing out on the Saudi Pro League title last season, Al Nassr will be eager to make a positive start to their new campaign.
They will also be eager to return to winning ways after suffering a 1-4 loss against Al Hilal in the Saudi Super Cup final last Saturday. Ronaldo scored the only goal for Al Nassr in the final.
With players like Ronaldo, Talisca, Otavio, Aymeric Laporte and Marcelo Bozovic in the squad, Al Nassr will back themselves to get the better of Al Raed, who finished 12th last season.
Meanwhile, winger Sadio Mane’s participation in the match remains uncertain with the Senegalese being linked to a loan move away from Al Nassr.
On the other hand, Al Raed will head into this game after a 2-3 loss against Ukrainian outfit Zorya Luhansk in a club friendly last time around.
Furthermore, Al Nassr boast a superior head-to-head against Al Raed having beaten them 15 times while suffering two defeats in 20 encounters against each other.
Three matches between these sides have previously finished in draws and the last encounter between the teams ended in a 3-1 win for Al Raed.
