Abha desperately need points on Thursday, May 6 at 7:00 PM in the Saudi Professional League. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Al Shabab come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). Abha travel struggling badly (0W 3L in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

History strongly favours Al Shabab here — they've won 5 of 10 previous meetings against Abha, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 2–2 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.6 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Al Shabab a slight edge, but Abha are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
