The two teams met in the quarter-finals on Al Ain’s route to last season’s triumph, with the visitors progressing through penalties after a 4-4 aggregate scoreline over both legs.

Al Nassr head into the contest on the back of a 1-1 draw with Al Hilal in the Saudi Pro League, which leaves them in third position with 19 points, six points behind league leaders Al Hilal after nine matches.

Talisca scored as early as the first minute, and the Global One could not find a second, before ultimately conceding in the 77th minute to make it three straight matches without a win across all competitions.

Al Nassr now return to action in the AFC Champions League, where they have picked up seven points from their opening three matches, following up the opening-day draw against Al-Shorta with wins over Al-Rayyan and Esteghlal.

Reigning champions Al Ain have endured a poor start to the competition this year, drawing their opening match before losing the following two, leaving them second to bottom in the standings.

Al Ain were involved in one of the most dramatic Champions League matches of all time in their last game, ultimately losing 5-4 at home against Al Hilal despite restoring parity twice in the match.

Winless in their last three matches across all competitions, Al Ain will hope to record a second win away at Al Nassr to end this run, while also giving them a first Champions League win of the season.
