Man City and Al-Hilal clash in the Club World Cup Round of 16 at the Camping World Stadium in Florida.

Man City vs Al-Hilal Prediction

  • Manchester City were the only team to win all three group matches.
  • They scored eight goals in their first two games (vs Al-Ain and Wydad AC) and beat Juventus 5-2 to top Group G in what was a statement win for the reigning champions.
  • City also finished the group stage with the best goal difference (+11) and the highest time spent in the lead (89%).
  • They are riding a five-game winning streak in all competitions, including the Premier League run-in.
  • Al-Hilal are unbeaten in their last eight matches, including all three group stage games.
  • However, they scored just three goals in Group H and relied heavily on their defence to get results.
  • Inzaghi's side conceded only one goal in the group stage — the joint-best defensive record alongside PSG — and finished second behind Real Madrid.
  • Salem Al-Dawsari is out injured with a hamstring issue, which is a big attacking loss.
  • This is only their second-ever meeting with an English side, having lost 1-0 to Chelsea in the 2021–22 CWC semi-final.

Score Prediction: Manchester City 3-0 Al-Hilal
