Al Shabab vs Damak Prediction
Al Shabab have been entertaining to watch throughout this season and much-improved as they sit tucked inside the top-half as the hosts now come into this one on the back of a 2-1 defeat of Al Raed the other day thanks to a match-winning brace scored by Cristian Guanca. They now face a Damak side that have recently suffered back-to-back defeats, meaning they have now managed just one victory in their last eight matches. Given the form of the two sides, as well as having home advantage, siding with Al Shabab is the way to go for this one.
