The 2025-2026 Saudi Pro League season is hurtling toward a thrilling conclusion, and all eyes are on Al-Nassr. Riding high on incredible momentum, the Riyadh-based giants are on the verge of lifting their first domestic league trophy since the 2018-19 season. But with rivals breathing down their necks, what exactly needs to happen for Cristiano Ronaldo and company to officially be crowned champions?

Here is a comprehensive breakdown of how Al-Nassr can win the Saudi Pro League title as we head into the pivotal final weeks of the season.

As of early May 2026, Al-Nassr is in the driver’s seat. They sit firmly at the top of the league table boasting a staggering 79 points, accumulated from 26 wins, 1 draw, and just 3 defeats.

Depending on the ongoing results of their closest rivals most notably Al-Hilal and Al-Ahli, Al-Nassr currently needs between 2 to 4 more victories to mathematically clinch the league title. If their title challengers drop points in the coming matchdays, Al-Nassr could secure the championship as early as the first half of May.

An Unstoppable Run of Form

Al-Nassr’s surge to the top of the table hasn’t been a fluke; it has been absolute dominance. They are currently enjoying a spectacular 20-match unbeaten run. Under their tactical setup, they hold the league’s most terrifying statistical balance: an explosive 81 goals scored and a remarkably stingy 21 goals conceded.

The heartbeat of this title charge? The dazzling attacking duo of Cristiano Ronaldo and Joao Felix. The Portuguese pair has combined for over 40 league goals this season. In their most recent outing, Al-Nassr flexed their muscles by sweeping aside Al-Ahli 2-0, courtesy of clinical finishes from Ronaldo and Kingsley Coman.

Al-Nassr Key Remaining Fixtures

To cross the finish line, Al-Nassr must navigate a tricky set of remaining fixtures that will test their championship mettle.

The Al-Qadsiah Hurdle (May 3, 2026)

The first major obstacle in their countdown to the trophy is an away trip to the Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium to face Al-Qadsiah. Managed by Brendan Rodgers, Al-Qadsiah sits comfortably in fourth place and is incredibly formidable at home, remaining unbeaten in 15 home fixtures this campaign.

The Title Decider: Al-Hilal (May 12, 2026)

If the league isn’t already wrapped up by then, mark the calendars for May 12. Al-Nassr is scheduled for a colossal, potentially title-deciding clash against their fiercest rivals, Al-Hilal. A victory in the Riyadh Derby would not only serve as the ultimate statement but could officially crown Al-Nassr as the kings of Saudi Arabia.

For Al-Nassr, the equation is simple: keep winning. With an unmatched squad depth, a watertight defense anchored by Aymeric Laporte and Marcelo Brozovic, and Cristiano Ronaldo in peak goal-scoring form, their destiny is entirely in their own hands. If they manage to conquer the unbeaten home record of Al-Qadsiah and hold their nerve against Al-Hilal, the 2026 Saudi Pro League trophy is undeniably heading to Al Awwal Park.
