Al-Shorta

WDLLLL 📉

Al-Shorta won’t want a repeat of their last result here after a 4-0 AFC Champions League Elite defeat last time out to Al-Hilal.

Leonardo (45', 72'), Sergej Milinković-Savić (63') and Cancelo (90') scored for Al-Hilal.

Al-Shorta have really struggled up front in recent times. Their goals record stands at just 4 vs opposing sides over the course of their last 6 matches. In those meetings, Al-Shorta have also seen the tally of goals that have gone against them come to 12. That kind of trend isn’t assured to be continued into this next game, however.

Al-Ahli Saudi

WDWWWL

Following on from tasting defeat last time out to Sharjah in AFC Champions League Elite competition, Al-Ahli Saudi will be aiming to make amends here.

A series of reliable displays from the Al-Ahli Saudi defensive unit has resulted in the number of goals they’ve conceded amounting to 4 from their last 6 clashes combined. Over that same time, their own attack force has managed to score 7.

🤜🤛 Head to head

The last league fixture between these sides was AFC Champions League Elite match day 4 on 04/11/2024 and the score finished Al-Ahli Saudi 5-1 Al-Shorta.

🗞️ Team News: Al-Shorta

The Al-Shorta boss Ahmed Salah Alwan will be grateful to have no fitness concerns to speak of coming into this game thanks to a fully healthy squad available for selection.

💡 Prediction

In our view, Al-Shorta might have a difficult job to breach the defence of this Al-Ahli Saudi side who should get a goal themselves and run out victorious.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a hard-fought contest, finishing with a 0-1 advantage for Al-Ahli Saudi at the conclusion of the game.

Looking forward to watching this one unfold.
