Expected Formation of Al-Nassr Against Al-Fateh in the Saudi League

Saturday 18-10-2025
The Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus announced the outline of the lineup that Al-Nassr will use in their anticipated match against Al-Fateh, as part of the fifth round of the Roshan Saudi Pro League.

The match will be hosted at Al-Awwal Park in the capital Riyadh on Saturday evening, at 9 PM local time and Egypt time, and 10 PM UAE time, with a large expected attendance to support the team.

Jesus is set to include Nawaf Al-Aqidi in the goalkeeping position, after excluding the Brazilian duo Pinto and Wesley from the squad for tactical reasons related to the coach's defensive options.

In the back line, the coach will rely on a defensive quartet consisting of Ayman Yahya, Mohammed Simakan, Inigo Martinez, and Nawaf Boshul, in an attempt to secure the back against Al-Fateh's counter-attacks.

The midfield features the outstanding trio of Marcelo Brozovic, Angelo Gabriel, and Joao Felix, as Jesus aims to dominate the midfield and create as many attacking opportunities as possible.

In attack, the legend Cristiano Ronaldo leads the front line alongside the speedy duo Sadio Mane and Kingsley Coman, in an attacking system expected to put continuous pressure on Al-Fateh's defense.

Al-Nassr currently tops the Roshan Saudi League table with 12 points after four rounds, while Al-Fateh sits at the bottom in sixteenth place with only one point, making this match a real test for both sides.
