✍️ Match Preview
Analysis & Preview
Al Shabab travel to Prince Abdullah al-Faisal Stadium to take on Al-Ahli Jeddah in Pro League (matchday 14). The game is scheduled for Saturday 25 November 2023 at 18:00 UK time.
Form Analysis
Looking at their last 10 matches, Al-Ahli Jeddah stand at 5W 2D 3L — 1.70 PPG. Last five: W W L W D. Offensively they are averaging 1.90 goals per game, with 1.70 conceded. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.
In front of their own supporters, Al-Ahli Jeddah have posted 6W 1D 0L from their last 7 home games — 2.71 PPG. They are averaging 2.14 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. 4 clean sheets from their last 7 home games (57%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at home. Their home PPG of 2.71 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.70 — Al-Ahli Jeddah are significantly better at home than their overall form suggests.
Across their last 10 games, Al Shabab have recorded 4W 1D 5L — 1.30 PPG. Last five: D W L W L. Their scoring rate of 1.30 per game is modest, conceding 1.60 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%).
Al Shabab's form when playing away from home: 2W 1D 7L across their last 10 road games (0.70 PPG). Away from home they average 1.20 goals scored and 2.00 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context. Their away PPG of 0.70 is notably below their overall 1.30 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.
The form comparison is too close to call — 1.70 PPG (Al-Ahli Jeddah) versus 1.30 (Al Shabab). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.
H2H Record
There is little to separate the sides in our head-to-head data. From 2 H2H matches, Al-Ahli Jeddah have won 0, Al Shabab 1, with 1 draw — a balanced record that offers no clear steer on its own. With only 2 H2H matches to go on, treat this as a light input.
These two sides have produced goals at a healthy rate, averaging 3.5 per game across the 2 H2H matches we hold. That scoring profile supports the Over 2.5 angle. The most recent of those, on 27 Jun 2022, ended Al-Ahli Jeddah 0–0 Al Shabab — a draw.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H signal is in the goals market — at 3.5 goals per game, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle from the head-to-head data.
In-Play Data
Al-Ahli Jeddah trading profile (last 13 games, 7 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 71% of their matches in home games; they lead at the break 62% of the time; BTTS occurs in 43% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 57% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 62%.
Al Shabab trading profile (last 13 games, 7 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 57% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 80% of those occasions; of the 5 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 40%; BTTS occurs in 57% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 71% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 38%.
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Al-Ahli Jeddah 62% and Al Shabab 62% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Al-Ahli Jeddah 69% | Al Shabab 54%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Al-Ahli Jeddah 1.97 xG and Al Shabab 1.00 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Al-Ahli Jeddah attack 1.074 / defence 0.818 | Al Shabab attack 0.847 / defence 1.176. League average goals — home 1.560 / away 1.444. Data: built from Al-Ahli Jeddah's last 13 games and Al Shabab's last 43.
Result probabilities: Al-Ahli Jeddah 59% | Draw 23% | Al Shabab 18%. Fair-value odds: Al-Ahli Jeddah 1.70 | Draw 4.30 | Al Shabab 5.64. The model has a clear lean to Al-Ahli Jeddah (59%) — a 36pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 57% | BTTS Yes probability 55% | Total xG 2.97. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 57% — the 2.97 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 55% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Al-Ahli Jeddah are the pick at 59% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 23% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.97 combined xG gives a 57% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (Al-Ahli Jeddah's last 7 home games and Al Shabab's last 10 away games) averaging 3.0 goals per game.
Poisson assigns a 55% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Al-Ahli Jeddah 43% (last 7 home games) | Al Shabab 60% (last 10 away games).

📈 Form Insight
Form at a Glance
Across their last 13 outings, Al-Ahli Jeddah have picked up 2.00 PPG on a 8W 2D 3L record — W-W-L-W-D across the most recent five.
Al Shabab's form line: 4W 3D 6L from 13 games, 1.15 PPG, last five D-W-L-W-L.

Venue Form
On home soil, Al-Ahli Jeddah have posted 2.71 PPG from their last 7 home games (6W 1D 0L). That's noticeably better than their 2.00 PPG overall — Al-Ahli Jeddah are a different proposition at home than their general record suggests.
On the road, Al Shabab have gone 1W 1D 5L from their last 7 away games — 0.57 PPG when travelling. That's a step down from their 1.15 PPG overall record — away form has been the weaker part of Al Shabab's recent record.
Comparing the two in their relevant venue splits, Al-Ahli Jeddah come out ahead — a more targeted read than the overall PPG figures above, since it strips out games played in the opposite context.
Goals in Recent Form
Al-Ahli Jeddah are averaging 2.00 goals scored and 1.46 conceded per game recently; Al Shabab are on 1.23 scored and 1.62 conceded.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
The points were shared at Prince Abdullah al-Faisal Stadium, Regular Season - 14, as Al-Ahli Jeddah and Al Shabab drew 0-0 in the Pro League. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Al-Ahli Jeddah 1.97 xG and Al Shabab 1.00 xG, a combined 2.97. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Al-Ahli Jeddah fell 2.0 short of their projected output. Al Shabab landed 1.0 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Al-Ahli Jeddah attack 1.07 / defence 0.82 against Al Shabab attack 0.85 / defence 1.18, drawn from 13/43 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Al-Ahli Jeddah 59% | Draw 23% | Al Shabab 18%, with Al-Ahli Jeddah to win its most likely call at 59%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 23% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 57%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 81% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 55% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 62% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Al-Ahli Jeddah 69%, Al Shabab 54%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 62%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Al-Ahli Jeddah's trading profile (13 games, 7 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 62% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 38% of the time, and duly kept one.
Al Shabab's trading profile (13 games, 7 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 62% of their matches — today it did not.
Form vs Result
On form, Al-Ahli Jeddah arrived the stronger side — 2.00 PPG against 1.15. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Al-Ahli Jeddah (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 2.14 scoring average — below par going forward. Al Shabab (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 0.86 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 2.14 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss), form (miss). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
