However, Real Madrid legend Ronaldo will not feature due to a calf injury.

Al-Nassr manager confirmed the 38-year-old’s absence earlier today.

He said: “We will not see [Messi vs Ronaldo].

“Ronaldo is in the final part of his recovery to join the group. We hope that in the next few days you can start working with the team. He will be absent from the game.”

Al-Nassr were recently forced to cancel their tour of China as a result of Ronaldo’s injury.

The Portugal captain’s last meeting with Messi came last January when Al-Nassr faced Paris Saint-Germain in a friendly.

PSG won 5-4 with Ronaldo scoring two goals and Messi getting one.

Messi left the Ligue 1 side last summer to join Inter Miami on a free transfer.
