Al Shabab vs MC Alger

Al Shabab have started their 2026 friendlies season with strong defensive output at home, winning both matches and keeping two clean sheets while scoring 4 goals and conceding 0. That gives them a clear edge in the home win direction, even though the sample size is small. MC Alger’s record is less decisive but still positive, with 1 win and 1 draw from two matches. They’ve scored 3 goals and conceded 1, including one clean sheet, which suggests they can stay competitive and limit Al Shabab’s scoring. The draw remains a meaningful possibility, with the probabilities showing 26.2% for a level result. For goals, the match is more balanced than one-sided: over 2.5 goals is at 41.5% and both teams to score at 46.7%, indicating a fairly even chance of a low-scoring or one-sided outcome rather than a guaranteed goal-heavy game. Overall, the home win lean fits Al Shabab’s perfect defensive record and unbeaten home start, but the relatively modest goal indicators and MC Alger’s ability to avoid defeat keep the confidence only moderate and the risk high.
