-----------------
Real Madrid looks to reach four points in Group H as they face Pachuca, who sit last after losing to Salzburg. Madrid currently hold second place following a draw with Al-Hilal.
Team Analysis:
Real Madrid drew 1-1 with Al-Hilal in their Club World Cup opener, showing an underwhelming performance without Kylian Mbappe. They sit second in Group H and need a win against Pachuca to strengthen their chances of advancing.
Pachuca lost their first match to Salzburg and face elimination if they lose to Real Madrid. Pachuca are experienced in the tournament, having faced Real Madrid recently in a 3-0 Intercontinental Cup final defeat.
Player Situation:
Real Madrid will likely miss Mbappe due to recent illness, with other key players also doubtful or injured. New signings Alexander-Arnold and Huijsen are expected to start, alongside Gonzalo Garcia. Pachuca is likely to keep the same lineup as their previous match, with veteran striker Salomon Rondon leading the attack and former Chelsea player Kenedy expected to start in an advanced role.
Result Prediction:
Pachuca can challenge Real Madrid and are expected to score, but Real Madrid’s superior quality should secure them a crucial win.
Predicted Result: Real Madrid 2-1 Pachuca.
