Al Nassr-Al Ettifaq is a match valid for the round of 16 of the King Cup, in Saudi Arabia: likely formations and predictions
Saudi Arabia’s King Cup sees teams take the field for the round of 16. Dry-run matches, with no chance of appeal. And of course one of the favorites is Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr.
In the previous round, the yellow-and-whites won 5-1 against Ohod, a formation from the Arab second division. So, no problem for the troop led by the Portuguese champion who is really dragging his teammates.Ronaldo is experiencing an extraordinary moment of form and tomorrow too he should take the field from the first minute. He does not want to miss anything, especially on a particular day like Tuesday, the day after the awarding of the Ballon d’Or, the one that after a lifetime has not even seen him among the nominees. It also had an easy time in the previous round with Al Ettifaq, led in this case by Wijnaldum – former Roma – and Dembele, former Lyon. It will be a very interesting challenge. Which, however, as you can also safely imagine, has a much favored team.
Ronaldo
The prediction of Al Nassr-Al Ettifaq
Race that will give one goal per team. With little discussion. Both concede a lot during their matches and have elements in attack that can find their way to the net. And since Al Nassr is favored then it will also be a match of at least three goals overall. In the end, therefore, CR7
should take the passage of the round.
