In this Pro League fixture, Al Shabab host Al Faisaly. The two teams sit 13th and 15th, just a point apart, and both come in off a win in their last match. This is a game where both sides need points to pull away from the lower part of the table. Al Shabab won 3-0 in their last match, but before that they had won only once in five league games and failed to score in two straight. Al Faisaly also won 3-2 last time out, but before that they lost 1-3 twice, so their defence remains a question. Neither team scores many goals over the course of a season, and their defensive records are similar. The likely pattern is Al Shabab seeing more of the ball and pushing forward for chances, while Al Faisaly sit back and look to counter, which should keep the game tight. The first thing to watch after kickoff is how quickly Al Shabab can get their attack going. If they need a long time on the ball, the game will become even more even and finish with a narrow margin.
