Al Ahly Preview
Al Ahly began its participation in the Club World Cup on February 1, and surprised the world with a 3-0 victory over Auckland City, the Oceania representative.
Their next obstacle was the Concacaf representative, Seattle Sounders, and they also emerged victorious, this time by a score of 1-0. The Egyptian side reached the semifinals without any problems, but the reigning European champions proved resilient and stopped them on the way, with a score of 1-4. The defeat snapped a 23-match unbeaten run since August 2022.
Probable lineup (4-4-1-1): Mohamed El-Shenawy; Mohamed Hany, Mahmoud Metwaly, Mohamed Abdelmonem, Ali Maaloul; Hussein El Shahat, Amr El-Solia, Aliou Dieng, Ahmed Abdelkader; Mohamed Magdy Afsha; Mohamed Sherif
Flamengo Preview
Flamengo arrived at the Club World Cup as the Conmebol representative after winning the Copa Libertadores. They qualified directly to the semifinals, but that did not help them in any way as they ended up losing to Al Hilal of Saudi Arabia, the representative of Asia, by a score of 3-2.
It was a surprise that the Brazilian team failed to reach the final, but this is not the first setback they have suffered in 2023, as they lost the Brazilian Super Cup to Palmeiras by a score of 4-3.
Mengao has the obligation to win this match, as in 2019 it participated for the first time in the competition and lost in the final. They will not surpass that performance, but they would close with a win.
Probable lineup (4-2-2-2-2): Santos; Matheuzinho, David Luiz, Léo Pereira, Ayrton Lucas; Thiago Maia, Arturo Vidal; Everton Ribeiro, Giorgian De Arrascaeta; Gabriel Barbosa, Pedro
JefeBet Prediction
Al Ahly will try to match the result they had in 2021 when they finished third in the competition by beating a Brazilian rival, on that occasion Palmeiras. Failure to reach the final will be a significant blow to Flamengo’s morale, which could lead to another defeat in this match.
Prediction: Al Ahly wins by a score of 2-1.
