Odion Ighalo and Cristiano Ronaldo will clash for the first time in the Saudi Arabia Professional Football League on Tuesday (today).



Ighalo’s Al Hilal will host Ronaldo and his Al Nassr teammates at the King Fahd International Stadium.

The duo will be the center of attention in the game, having scored plenty of goals for their respective clubs this season.

Ighalo has registered 16 goals and two assists in 21 league appearances for Al Hilal.

The 33-year-old is currently the joint top scorer in the league with Al Nassr’s Brazilian striker, Talisca, and Ittihad’s Abderrazzaq Hamdallah.

Ronaldo, who only moved to Al Nassr in January, has scored 11 goals in 10 league outings for the club.

Ighalo was the top scorer in the Saudi League with 24 goals last season.

Defending champions Al Hilal occupy the fourth position on the table, while Al Nassr sit in the second position.
