Nacho a doubt for Al Qadsiah’s clash with Al Hilal

Al Qadsiah defender Nacho is a doubt for Friday’s Roshn Saudi League meeting with Al Hilal because of an ankle injury.

Al Qadsiah host Al Hilal in the 11th round of the competition, with the hosts top of the table on 25 points from 10 matches.

They lead Al Hilal by one point, although the visitors have played nine games.

Nacho has missed Al Qadsiah’s past three matches in all competitions after suffering an injury to his ankle joint. He was absent for the fixtures against Pakhtakor, Abha and Al Taawoun.

According to Al Riyadiyah, sources expect the Spain international to miss a fourth successive match for Al Qadsiah.

Nacho will undergo a final fitness test on Friday before a decision is made on whether he can face Al Hilal, but he is currently expected to be unavailable.
