Fluminense vs Al Hilal Preview 


After their initial 1-1 draw with Real Madrid, it was clear that Al Hilal are capable of competing with top-tier teams. Their confidence is soaring after beating Man City, so I’m backing the Saudi side to edge out a defensively-oriented Fluminense.

HTH 


This is going to be the first head to head match between Fluminense and Al Hilal. 

Fluminense Form 


Fluminense are still unbeaten at the Club World Cup, recording two draws and one victory in the first phase to advance as 2nd from Group F.  

They did a great job in deflecting Borussia Dortmund’s attacks in the opening match (0-0), then earned a 4-2 victory against Ulsan HD where Jhon Arias starred with one goal and one assist.  

In the final round, a goalless draw against Mamelodi Sundowns was enough for Fluminense to advance. They had 0.32-0.71 expected goals, 32% possession and 6-7 shots in that match. 

German Cano found the net for Big Flu just three minutes into their Round of 16 clash against Inter Milan, while Hercules sealed the 2-0 victory deep into stoppage time, upsetting the Italian giants. 

Al Hilal Form 


Simone Inzaghi recently took charge of Al Hilal, his first match in charge coming at the Club World Cup. It ended in a 1-1 draw against Real Madrid, Rúben Neves equalising from the penalty spot and Yassine Bounou saving a penalty in added time. 

The Saudi side drew 0-0 against Salzburg in the second round, followed by a 2-0 win against Pachuca to book their spot in the playoffs. Salem Al Dawsari broke the deadlock, while Marcos Leonardo found the net in stoppage time. 

Al Hilal caused a massive upset in the Round of 16 by eliminating Manchester City 4-3 in extra-time. Marcos Leonardo was man of the match scoring a brace, Kalidou Koulibaly and Malcom also on target. 

Team News 


The Brazilian side will most likely be without Yefferson Soteldo who recovered from an injury but lacks fitness. 

Al Hilal are likely to miss Aleksandar Mitrovic (injury), while Salem Al-Dawsari is sidelined with a hamstring problem. Abdullah Al-Hamddan (calf) and Mosab Al-Juwair (knee) are both doubtful, and Hassan Tambakti remains a fitness concern after missing the last game. 

Predicted Starting Lineups  


Fluminense: Fabio, Freytes, Silva, Ignacio, Rene, Hercules, Martinelli, Xavier, Nonato, Cano, Arias 

Al Hilal: Bono, Tambakti, Koulibaly, Cancelo, Lodi, Neves, Kanno, Milinkovic-Savic, Malcom, Al Dawsari, Leonardo 

Verdict

I’ve been impressed by Al Hilal’s performances so far at the CWC, especially in their matches against heavyweights Real Madrid and Man City. With that in mind, there’s value in backing the Saudi side to beat the defensively-oriented Fluminense. 

Another option worth considering is Marcos Leonardo to score. He bagged three goals in the last two CWC matches.
