Al Nassr take a break from the Saudi Pro League title race as they take on Al Wehda in a King Cup semifinal on April 24. 

Cristiano Ronaldo's side would face Al Hilal in the King Cup final, if they can get past Al Wehda in Riyadh. Asian Champions League finalists Al Hilal downed Saudi Pro League leaders Al Ittihad to clinch the other finalist berth thanks to an own goal in extra time.

Al Nassr will be looking to redeem themselves after slipping to 2-0 defeat at Al Hilal in their last league outing, with Al Ittihad now three points clear at the top of the table and a game in hand, as Ronaldo & Co. turn their attention to cup duty.

Al Wehda, 13th in the Saudi Pro League, are seeking their first King Cup trophy since 1970, while Al Nassr last won it in 2020. Here's all the key information on the match, including kickoff time, live stream and TV channels, lineups, and betting odds.
