Al Wehda vs Al Shabab Prediction
Al Wehda come into this one on the back of surprising back-to-back victories before the March international break against Al Raed and Al Khaleej. They remain in the bottom three and the relegation places. Al Shabab, on the other hand, remain tucked inside the top-half of the Pro League, defeating Al Orubah by six goals to nil a few weeks ago before then being beaten by Al Ittihad in the semi-finals of the King’s Cup of Champions in heartbreaking fashion, conceding two second-half stoppage-time goals to Danilo Pereira in a 3-2 loss. That may knock the confidence and motivation of the visitors so, with home advantage and looking to build on their improvement, siding with Al Wehda may well be a good value bet for this one.
