Al Dhafra U21’s been erratic, their showings fluctuating from inspired to questionable. Meanwhile, Al Shaab Sharjah U21’s fighting through a slump, their defense looking porous.
Looking at past contests, it’s a toss-up. Al Dhafra U21’s taken the upper hand lately, but the game’s got a short memory.
My two cents: Each teams’ve got holes. Al Dhafra U21’s engine room’s sputtering, while Al Shaab Sharjah U21’s frontline lacks a spark.

If you’re backing this one, here’s the unvarnished truth.
Al Dhafra U21 at 1.45 to win feels slightly short given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the Premier League U21 this term. Their xG (expected goals) suggest they’re riding luck — stats nerds would avoid.
Al Shaab Sharjah U21’s 4.86 odds tempts, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his recent funk.
The wise guys’ll likely poke at the Draw 5.1 — these derbies often follow scripts, and pressure can kill attacking flow.
