2025-05-12 | Game Summary

In a compelling Saudi Pro League clash at Al-Shabab Club Stadium on May 11, 2025, Al Shabab triumphed over Al Ahli with a score of 3-1. The game saw Al Shabab deploying a 4-3-3 formation, while Al Ahli opted for a 4-2-3-1 setup. Despite Al Ahli holding a slight edge in possession with 50.8% compared to Al Shabab's 49.2%, Al Shabab proved more clinical in front of goal.
Mohammed Al Thani opened the scoring for Al Shabab in the 26th minute, followed by Abderrazak Hamdallah's goal in the 33rd minute. Gabri Veiga pulled one back for Al Ahli in the 36th minute, but Hamdallah secured his brace and Al Shabab's victory with a goal in the 65th minute. The match wasn't without drama, as Hamdallah received a red card in the 77th minute.
Al Ahli registered more shots overall with 15 compared to Al Shabab's 10, but Al Shabab were more accurate, landing 6 shots on target compared to Al Ahli's 5. Al Shabab committed slightly more fouls (10 to 9) and received more yellow cards (6 to 4). The AI-powered pre-game prediction correctly forecasted an Al Shabab win, aligning with the final result. The AI model also expected a balanced game, and while the possession stats support that, the scoreline suggests Al Shabab capitalized better on their opportunities.
Al Shabab's victory breaks a somewhat inconsistent run, having previously lost to Al Fateh and drawn against Al Hilal and Al Okhdood. Al Ahli, on the other hand, entered the game in excellent form, winning their last five matches across all competitions. This loss interrupts their winning streak.
Looking ahead, Al Shabab faces Al Riyadh on May 15th in another Saudi Pro League match. Al Shabab will look to build on this victory against an Al Riyadh side that has struggled recently, losing three of their last five games. Al Ahli will face Al Ettifaq on May 22nd; despite their recent loss, Al Ahli's strong form suggests they will be a formidable opponent for Al Ettifaq, who have had mixed results recently. Al Shabab will need to improve their discipline and consistency to climb higher in the Saudi Pro League table. Al Ahli will aim to bounce back from this defeat and continue their strong run in both domestic and continental competitions.
