Shabab secured an early goal in the game and maintained their defensive strength throughout the match to seal the win.

A critical analysis of their last 8 encounters produced 5 victories for Shabab, a victory for Raed, and 2 draws.

Additionally, we anticipate that Al-Shabab will score a minimum of two goals in this game at odds of 1.77, with the possibility of a total of over 2.5 goals being scored during the match.
