Is Cristiano Ronaldo Playing Tonight for Al Nassr vs Al Wasl?

Al Nassr will be playing away from home against Al Wasl in the AFC Champions League Two quarterfinal. This match was postponed and was initially scheduled for two legs last month.

Both teams reached the quarterfinals after winning their respective Round of 16 matches in February.

Al Nassr are the favourites to win the competition, but they will be playing away from home in a single-leg quarter-final match. Al Nassr fans are hoping to see Cristiano Ronaldo play, who has only played one match in this competition this season.

Ronaldo played in Al Nassr's previous Saudi Pro League match earlier this week against Al Ettifaq, where he was taken off the pitch in the 89th minute due to stomach pain.

With Ronaldo having not played in the competition and having stomach pain in the previous match, most fans assume that he will not play today, but new reports suggest the opposite.

Cristiano Ronaldo is set to play against Al Wasl in the quarterfinal of the AFC Champions League Two. Ronaldo is no longer dealing with stomach issues and is set to start the match.

Ronaldo is expected to make his second appearance in the AFC Champions League Two. His last appearance was in the group stage against Al Zawraa on December 24, 2025.

Ronaldo provided an assist in Al Nassr's 5-1 win over Al Zawraa in his last appearance in this competition, and is now a win away from reaching the AFC Champions League Two semifinal.
