Heres a news-supported preview & tactical analysis for Al-Nassr vs Al-Shabab in the Saudi Pro League (Saturday, 17 January 2026): Al-Nassr After an historic start with 10 straight league wins, Al-Nassrs form has dipped; theyre winless in their last four competitive matches, including a 31 defeat to rivals Al-Hilal. Theyve struggled defensively of late, conceding goals at a higher rate and showing disciplinary issues (multiple red cards). Cristiano Ronaldo remains their main attacking threat, with his goals and experience vital for breaking down stubborn defenses. Absences due to suspensions and injuries weaken the squad: goalkeeper Al-Aqidi is suspended, as are Marcelo Brozović and Nawaf Boushal, and Sadio Mané is away on AFCON duty. Al-Shabab have had a very tough season, spending most of it near the relegation zone with only a couple of league wins before Matchweek 14. They eased their drought with a 32 win vs NEOM SC, with Yannick Carrasco playing a key role (goals + assist). Howe
