Match description

Neom SC sit 8th in the table while Al Shabab are 13th, which already indicates a home advantage. In the last 5 matches Neom have 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, averaging 1.6 points per game and scoring 9 goals, whereas Al Shabab over the same period have 0 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, just 0.6 points per game and 7 goals. At Neom’s ground they average 4.8 shots on target and 52% possession, while Al Shabab away average 3.73 shots on target, 45% possession, 47% draws and fail to score in 47% of away matches. Expected chances are similar (xG Neom 1.37 vs xG Al Shabab 1.27), however the visitors have conceded 13 goals in the last 5 matches versus 8 for Neom and have 52 goals conceded in the season compared to 44 for the hosts; on average Al Shabab concede 1.2 goals away versus 1.47 conceded by Neom at home. Given Neom’s higher points per game (1.6 vs 0.6), greater number of shots on target and the low rate of goalless matches for the hosts (13% vs 47%), I predict a Neom SC victory.
