Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo celebrated his 40th birthday on February 5, 2025. Two days later, on February 7, his club Al-Nassr FC will host Al-Fayha for it's 19th game of the Saudi Pro League 2024-25. Now, a question is surely raising among his fans, whether Cristiano Ronaldo play in the Al-Nassr vs Al-Fayha match in the Saudi Pro League 2024-25? Al-Nassr side will be desperate to win this one as they have 38 points from 18 games and are sitting in the fourth spot - 11 points behind leaders Al-Ittihad.

If team form is considered, the Al-Nassr team is unbeaten in their last five games and winning three from the league. A win against Al-Fayha will put the side at the third position with 41 points from 19 games. Nothing but a victory should make the CR7-starring side satisfied as they will be playing a home game against a struggling Al-Fayha, who have just 16 points from 18 games and are trembling at the 13th spot. A win would also better their chance of challenging for the title, as the side is yet to win a title despite the arrival of star striker Cristiano Ronaldo.
