Manchester City are all set to meet Al Hilal in the Round of 16 of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. The League is getting thrilling now as best teams are ready to face best teams. As Bayern, PSG, Chelsea and Palmeiras are already in the Quarter-finals of the competition, it is now City and Al Hilal who will be trying to reach there.<\/p>\n
Pep Guardiola\u2019s men come into this fixture in red-hot form, riding a five-game winning streak across all competitions. With their attacking lineup firing on all cylinders, City will be looking to assert their dominance early and avoid any slip-ups that could jeopardize their title hopes.<\/p>\n
However, Al Hilal are no pushovers. The Saudi giants are undefeated in their last eight matches and showed plenty of fight in their opening-day performance against Real Madrid. With talents like Malcom, Neves, and Sergej Milinkovi\u0107-Savi\u0107, they have the quality to make things difficult for the champion side.<\/p>\n

Manchester City (4-3-3):<\/strong><\/p>\n Ederson; Nunes, R\u00faben Dias, Gvardiol, A\u00eft-Nouri; Reijnders, Silva, Cherki; Savinho, Doku, Haaland<\/p>\n Al Hilal (4-3-3):<\/strong><\/p>\n Bounou; Cancelo, Koulibaly, Al-Tambakti, Lodi; Neves, Milinkovi\u0107-Savi\u0107, S Al-Dawsari; Malcom, N Al-Dawsari, Leonardo<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n City are the clear favorites on paper, but they must guard against complacency. Guardiola\u2019s men are known for their fluid attacking play and defensive solidity, and the inclusion of newcomers like Rayan Cherki and Savinho offers added flair and unpredictability.<\/p>\n Al Hilal, meanwhile, will aim to capitalize on quick transitions and set-pieces. Their wide players, especially Malcom and Nasser Al-Dawsari, will be key to exploiting any spaces left by City\u2019s high line.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The match will be available for live streaming via \u2018DAZN\u2019 website for Indians. You can catch live updates and commentary on this sports website via your phone or laptops.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Manchester City\u2019s quality and depth should see them through, but Al Hilal\u2019s form and resilience suggest it won\u2019t be a walk in the park. Expect a competitive match, with City likely to edge it.<\/p>\n Prediction: Manchester City 3-1 Al Hilal<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Manchester City are all set to meet Al Hilal in the Round of 16 of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":202,"featured_media":34413,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[3578,3920,1077,2732,4014,3796,3800,359],"class_list":["post-15637","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","tag-al-hilal","tag-english-premier-league-2024-25","tag-erling-haaland","tag-fifa-club-world-cup","tag-fifa-club-world-cup-2025","tag-football","tag-manchester-city","tag-pep-guardiola"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15637","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/202"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15637"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15637\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34413"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15637"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15637"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15637"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Match Preview<\/h3>\n
