Expert Betting Tips

Betting on Shabab Al-Ahli Dubai FC to maintain their dominance against Al-Bataeh in this upcoming season opener is indeed a great option given Shabab’s superiority and recent successes over Bataeh. Shabab has emerged victorious in their last 4 encounters and we do not expect any surprises on Saturday, not at the Al-Rashid stadium. 

We can also expect a minimum of two goals from Shabab Al-Ahli and a total of over 2.5 goals as this has been the case in 3 of their last four encounters. Al-Bataeh cannot keep a clean sheet as they’ll surely concede a goal.
