Al Shabab vs Al Najma prediction

In the summer, Al Shabab completed the appointment of former Real Sociedad boss Imanol Alguacil. The hosts have majorly underperformed thus far and again succumbed to a frustrating 3-2 loss to Al Nassr at the Al Awwal Park in Riyadh.

Following their promotion to the top-flight last season, Al Najma have struggled as they sit rock-bottom in the Saudi Pro League table. The visitors have collected just three points without a win in their 15 matches so far this season.

Al Shabab may or may not have turned a corner but, with their home advantage, the inconsistent hosts have to be viewed as firm favourites for this one this weekend.
