Expected Formation for Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad in the King's Cup
The "Al-Awl Park" stadium in Riyadh is preparing to host a heavyweight clash between Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad this evening, Tuesday, as part of the Round of 16 of the King's Cup, in a match expected to be full of excitement and competitiveness until its last moments.
Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus, the head coach of Al-Nassr, has finalized his tactical choices for tonight's match, relying on a strong attacking formation led by the trio Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mane, and Kingsley Coman, supported by playmaker Joao Felix directly behind them.
Al-Nassr is expected to start the match with a lineup that includes: Nawaf Al-Aqidi in goal, and in front of him in defense are Ayman Yahya, Mohamed Simakan, Inigo Martinez, and Nawaf Boushal. In midfield, there will be Angelo Gabriel, Abdullah Al-Khaibari, and Joao Felix.
In the forward line, Jesus relies on his usual attacking strength with Coman, Ronaldo, and Mane, in an attempt to penetrate Al-Ittihad's defense early and secure qualification to the quarter-finals of the prestigious tournament.
On the other side, Al-Ittihad is expected to enter the match with a lineup led by goalkeeper Predrag Rajkovic, and in front of him, a defensive quartet of Mario Mitaj, Danilo Pereira, Saad Al-Mousa, and Muhannad Al-Shanqeeti, who has recently returned from injury.
In midfield, Faisal Al-Ghamdi, N'Golo Kante, and Fabinho Tavares will be positioned, while the attack will be led by the trio Moussa Diaby, Steven Bergwijn, and Karim Benzema, in an attacking formation through which coach Sergio Conceicao hopes to turn the tide of the match.
It is worth mentioning that Al-Ittihad overcame Al-Wahda in the Round of 32 with a clean goal, while Al-Nassr advanced after a big win over Jeddah with a score of four to zero. In the last round of the league, Al-Nassr defeated Al-Hazm with two goals to none, while Al-Ittihad lost to Al-Hilal with two goals to none.
