What to expect

We expect about 1.3 goals from Al Shorta and 0.6 from Al Naft, so Al Shorta come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 1.9 goals in the game, so we are braced for a tight one where good chances are rare.

Our pick: Al Shorta or Draw. This covers Al Shorta or the draw, trading a shorter price for a wider safety net. A sensible way to back the lean without needing the exact result.

We put the chance of that landing at about 88 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.17, which works out at about 85 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.

What the numbers say
✓Al Shorta are unbeaten in their last five — two wins and three draws.
✓Al Naft are unbeaten in their last five — four wins and one draw.
✓Four of the last five meetings finished under 2.5 goals.
✓Both teams scored in two of the last five meetings.
