Fluminense vs Al-Hilal: Club World Cup Match Preview, Odds & Predictions

The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup quarterfinals feature Fluminense vs Al-Hilal. At Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida, two giant-killing teams will square off. Manchester City and Inter Milan were eliminated in the last round, respectively.

Previous Matches and Head-to-Head

With three victories and two draws in their last five matches across all competitions, Fluminense RJ has been in incredible form as of late.  Their recent 2–0 triumph against Inter Milan is indicative of both their offensive and defensive strengths; in their previous five games, they have allowed only two goals.  Coach Renato Portaluppi has led Fluminense to a balanced effort from his squad, which has been impressive.  With their remarkable run, they are well-positioned for their forthcoming match against Al-Hilal SFC.

Additionally, Fluminense RJ is a formidable opponent due to their strong defensive record and recent six-game goal-scoring streak.  Since they always perform well at home, their confidence will be through the roof.

Additionally, Al-Hilal SFC has been in excellent form lately, winning three of their past five matches and drawing two. Their most recent victory was a nail-biting 4-3 extra-time triumph against Manchester City.  They demonstrated their tenacity and offensive prowess in a recent victory, scoring four goals against a top-tier opponent.  Coach Simone Inzaghi has guided Al-Hilal to a level of play where they can challenge the world's top teams.

Despite their substantial offensive numbers, Al-Hilal's defensive solidity has been called into doubt after they conceded four goals in their previous five matches.  With their formidable defensive capabilities, Fluminense may capitalize on this weakness.  This contest is exciting because both teams have a knack for scoring and conceding goals.

There has been no formal rivalry between Fluminense RJ and Al-Hilal SFC in terms of confrontations.  Because neither side has played the other in a head-to-head battle before, this makes the contest even more unpredictable.  Due to the lack of prior encounters, both coaches will need to carefully examine the opponent's recent results to formulate a strategy.

Injury concerns have cast doubt on midfielder Martinelli's participation in the quarterfinal match against Inter, after he left the game just after the hour mark.  With an Achilles tendon injury that has sidelined him since March, Otavio will be out indefinitely.

Even though Aleksandar Mitrovic is still out with an injury, Al-attack Hilal's is holding its own.  Hassan Al Tambakti may also be unavailable due to a knee issue; Suhayb Al Zaid has been sidelined since April with a Cruciate Ligament injury. Neither player was able to participate in the victory against Man City.
