Al Ettifaq vs Al Shabab prediction
Al Ettifaq have been generally strong throughout this season and they remain tucked inside the top-half of the table but they do come into this one on the back of three defeats in their last four matches in the Saudi Pro League.
Al Shabab have been much-improved since the sacking of former Real Sociedad boss Imanol Alguacil but they were beaten in their most recent outing, too, losing 5-3 at home to title challenging Al Hilal.
These are two sides that will be expected to spend the majority of the back end of this season 'on the beach' so to speak and that may lead to a reasonably pressure-eased easy on the eye clash here in which both teams scoring seems a good shout.
Al Ettifaq vs Al Shabab tip: Both teams to score
