Al Shabab vs Al Kholood Prediction
Al Shabab come into this one on the back of a comfortable and impressive 3-1 defeat of Al Wehda in their most recent outing last weekend. Last week, the hosts suffered a 3-2 defeat to Al Ittihad in Jeddah in the semi-finals of the King’s Cup of Champions in a game in which Danilo Pereira scored two goals deep into second-half stoppage-time. They now face an Al Kholood side that were most recently beaten 2-0 at home by Al Taawon the other day. Al Shabab will be expected to get back on track in this one, especially with their home advantage.
