Al Shabab vs Al Faisaly Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 19 October 2026
📢 Al-Shabab and Al-Faisaly have made very poor starts to the new season and are already close to the relegation zone. The hosts sit 13th in the table, while the visitors are 15th.

Head-to-head statistics Al Shabab - Al Faisaly
Al-Shabab: just one win in their last ten matches as their poor run of form drags on
In their most recent Pro League match on 11 October 2026, Al-Shabab beat Al-Taawon 3-0 at home despite having just 32% possession. They had fewer shots overall but were more accurate, putting six on target to Al-Taawon's three.
Al-Shabab sit 13th in the table with seven points, just above the relegation zone. The team are going through a difficult spell, having won just once in their last ten matches, with four draws and five defeats. The five matches before that were little better: one win, two draws and two losses. One of the main problems is an attack that lacks cutting edge, averaging 1.13 goals per game this season, while the defence has also been leaking regularly, conceding at a rate of 1.38 per match.

Al-Faisaly have suffered two defeats in their last five matches, conceding nearly two goals per game
Al-Faisaly's last Pro League match ended in a 3-2 home win over Al-Khulood 15 October 2026. The score was level at 2-2 at half-time, and Al-Khulood outshot Al-Faisaly (18-16) and had the higher xG (2.99 vs 2.36).
Al-Faisaly are also struggling badly at the start of the season, sitting 15th with six points and above the relegation zone only on goal difference. Their results have been inconsistent, with two wins, three draws and five defeats in their last ten matches. In the five matches before that, they won just once and lost twice, which underlines how difficult a period they are going through. Their attack is averaging one goal per game this season. The main problem remains an unreliable defence, which is conceding 1.88 goals per match and making the fight for points considerably harder.

Total Goals Prediction
In 8 consecutive head-to-head meetings at Al-Shabab's ground, the total goals have not exceeded 3.5. The seasonal and recent numbers for both sides also point towards a low-scoring game: Al-Shabab average 1.4 goals at home, while Al Faisaly average 1 goal away, with both sides conceding roughly 1.6-2.3 goals on average. The last 10 matches for each team have not stood out for high scoring either. On that basis, we're predicting Total Goals - Under 3.5 at odds of 1.52*.
Reliable Bet
Al-Shabab have gone unbeaten in 8 of their last 9 Pro League head-to-head meetings with Al Faisaly. Even with modest scoring and frequent draws, the hosts have traditionally managed at least a draw. On that basis, we're backing Al-Shabab not to lose at odds of 1.17.

⭐ Editor's Prediction
Al-Shabab are clear favourites here, with home advantage and a higher quality squad on their side, but their current form makes a straightforward win hard to count on. Both teams are struggling to create and convert chances, so there is little reason to expect a high-scoring match. The statistics point in the same direction: Al-Shabab's last eight home matches have all featured no more than three goals. The editor's main prediction is Total Goals - Under 3.5.
