The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Al Shabab are in the 8th position while the guesting Al Adalh worry at 16th.
Al Shabab and Al Adalh should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Al Shabab form and stats
When playing at home in the Pro League, Al Shabab have managed 5 wins, 2 draws and suffered 4 defeats from 11 games.
Al Shabab are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-5 away versus Al Ittihad. Before that, Al Shabab had a home game versus Dhamk which ended with a victory 3-2.
As you see from the result above, Al Shabab suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.
Al Shabab has scored 16 league goals at home this season, in 11 matches. 15 goals have been conceded.
Al Adalh form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Al Adalh so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 0-4-6 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Al Adalh have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone eleven consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Najran game. Al Adalh are desperate to end a 16-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Abha fixture.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Pro League home defeat versus Al Faisaly with 0-2 on the scoreboard. Before that, Al Adalh travelled to Abha and returned home with a draw after the game finished 2-2.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Al Adalh as they have only managed to score 7 times from 10 away games in the league. Al Adalh have conceded 21 goals in these games.
