Al Jazira vs Al Shabab Prediction
Al Shabab are the favourites in the game and also have home advantage in their favour. The Riyadh-based team have already secured progress as group winners but will be keen to end the group stage on a high.
Al Jazira, meanwhile, have struggled to match the level of play required to excel in the continent, leading to their early elimination. They could spring an unlikely upset, but Al Shabab should claim a comfortable victory and also keep a clean sheet.
Prediction: Al Jazira 0-3 Al Shabab.
