Al Shabab vs Al Ahli forecast
Al Shabab, guided by former Real Sociedad manager Imanol Alguacil, have recently managed to distance themselves from the bottom three and the relegation zone. Nevertheless, they suffered a 1-0 defeat to struggling Al Kholood last weekend.
They are now scheduled to face an Al Ahli squad that, under the direction of former Red Bull Salzburg coach Matthias Jaissle, sits three points adrift of league leaders Al Hilal following their 2-0 victory over Al Hazem in the previous round.
Al Ahli present a formidable challenge, proving difficult to play against and score goals past. They remain firmly in the title hunt and are expected to secure a win in this encounter at the King Fahd Stadium.
