Goal Expectation and Key Stats
Both teams average the same total goals per match: 2.4. They get there by different routes.
- Al Ittihad Jeddah: score 1.6 goals per match and concede 0.8.
- Shabab Al Ahli Dubai: score 1.4 goals per match and concede 1.0.
The hosts look more solid at the back. They concede 0.2 fewer goals per game than their opponents. They also score 0.2 more. These two small gaps give the home side a slight edge. Even so, the Dubai side can find the net. Both teams have a 80% both-teams-to-score rate, so in four of every five matches both goalkeepers have been beaten. Clean sheets are rare for both of them.
The goal-line profiles are similar but not identical. On the lowest goal line, the Over rate is 80% for both teams. On the middle line, 60% of Al Ittihad Jeddah matches finish Over, against 40% for Shabab Al Ahli Dubai. On the highest line, both sit at 20%. The reading is this: goals are likely, but a high-scoring game is not a frequent scenario. Matches mostly land in the two-to-three goal range. The home side's stronger Over lean nudges expectations up slightly, while the visitors' draws may pull the tempo down.
The iTahmin Over potential tag for this match is weak/risky, with high risk. The reason is clear: the both-teams-to-score trend is strong, but the low rates on the highest goal line keep the total goal expectation limited. For more of our analyses, visit the predictions page.

iTahmin Verdict
The data points to Al Ittihad Jeddah holding a small advantage. More wins, a higher points tally, fewer goals conceded and slightly more goals scored all support that. Still, Shabab Al Ahli Dubai's unbeaten run and their scoring trend show that the gap is not wide. A draw should not be dismissed either: the Dubai side drew three of their last five, the hosts two.
On goals, both teams average 2.4. The both-teams-to-score rate is 80% and the Over lean on the lowest line is strong. The rates on the highest goal line are low, though. The expectation is a match where goals are scored but which does not turn into a rout. Results can always step outside the numbers. This assessment is a reading of probabilities, not a claim about the outcome.
