Al Hilal vs Pachuca Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | FIFA Club World Cup 2025

The Saudi Pro League giants still have a chance to secure a round of 16 spot.

Al Hilal are ready to battle it out against Pachuca in their final group stage fixture of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup. The high-stakes and intense match between the two sides is all set to take place at the GEODIS Park.

The Saudi Pro League giants Al Hilal have not been the best in attack, but have defended well against their opponents. A win is very crucial for them here if they want to get to the round of 16 of the mega competition.

Even though they have a quality squad, the upcoming fixture will not be an easy one for them. Simone Inzaghi‘s team will be keen on going for a win here.

The Liga MX side Pachuca have lost both of their previous group stage games of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. They have already been eliminated from the tournament. Pachuca will be looking to come up with a tough fight here.

If the Liga MX club goes on to win the match, then the Saudi club will be eliminated from the tournament. Even a draw can not save them at this point.

Leonardo is the main man for Al Hilal in the absence of Aleksander Mitrovic.

Salomon Rondon (Pachuca)
