Saudi Arabia's football league has postponed three fixtures, including one involving Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr team, due to an escalation in missile attacks from Yemen's Houthis. The Saudi Pro League (SPL) announced the rescheduling of matchweek nine fixtures for "logistical considerations." The match between league leaders Al Hilal and Al Riyadh, and the game between Al Ittihad and Al Shabab, have been moved to December 19. The clash involving Al Ahli and Al Nassr has been rescheduled for March 6, 2027. Other matchweek nine fixtures will proceed as planned. This follows a previous incident where Al Nassr's AFC Champions League match against Uzbek side Neftchi Fergana in Riyadh was delayed by an hour after a missile fired by the Houthis was intercepted. The ongoing conflict has seen multiple sites in Saudi Arabia targeted.
