Al Nassr are up against another European giant this week as Cristiano Ronaldo and his side lock horns with Inter Milan in an interesting friendly match at the Nagai Stadium on Thursday.
Inter Milan vs Al Nassr Preview
Inter Milan finished in third place in the Serie A standings and have been fairly impressive over the past year. The Nerazzurri slumped to a narrow 1-0 defeat against Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League final in their previous game and will need to bounce back this week.
Al Nassr, on the other hand, secured a second-place finish in the Saudi Pro League last season and have not been at their best in recent months. The Saudi Arabian outfit held PSG to an admirable 0-0 draw this week and will look to take it up a notch in this match.
