Al-Feiha will be hosting Al Nassr this Tuesday at King Abdullah Sport City Stadium in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Cristiano Ronaldo made his first start of the Saudi Pro League 2024/25 season in Al Nassr's previous match on Thursday. In that game, Al-Alami played out a 1-1 draw against Al-Raed at the Al-Awwal Stadium in Riyadh.
Al-Feiha, meanwhile, kicked off their season with a heartbreak, after conceding a 95th-minute goal in the defeat to Al-Taawoun despite playing with a man advantage for the final ten minutes or so.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times, and the latest lineup news.

Al Feiha vs. Al Nassr prediction
Al-Nassr are under pressure to kick off their season on a high note after a frustrating opening-day draw. They face Al Feiha, a team they've consistently outperformed in the past.
Given their strong track record against Al Feiha and with star power like Cristiano Ronaldo leading the charge, we expect the visitors to secure a win.
However, don't be surprised if Al Feiha manages to sneak in a goal. Despite the potential for a close contest, Al-Nassr's pedigree should see them through to victory.
Prediction: Al Feiha 1-2 Al Nassr
