Real Madrid vs Al Hilal Betting Tips: Two bets for Club World Cup Final
Real Madrid take on Al Hilal in the Club World Cup Final on Saturday night at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Morocco.
The Spanish giants are gunning for a record fifth trophy in the competition and head into this one as the scorching hot favourites to beat their Saudi Arabian opponents.
You can watch the game on the FIFA+ website at 7pm.
BettingOdds has previewed the showdown below and picked out two tips.
There could be another special season brewing at Real Madrid who are in contention to win a number of prominent competitions.
Last season's Spanish and European champions may have recently missed out on the Spanish Super Cup, but they can put that disappointment behind them by lifting the Club World Cup on Saturday.
Los Blancos are also battling it out with Barcelona for La Liga supremacy and face the same opponents in a mouth-watering Copa del Rey semi-final, plus Liverpool in the Champions League last-16 in a rematch of last season's final. It could well be a season-defining month for Carlo Ancelotti's side.
After dismantling Al Ahly 4-1 in the semi-finals, Real Madrid are as short as 1/10 to win the Club World Cup for a record fifth time. They've won every Final they've been in, with all four victories coming between 2014 and 2018.
They may have been expecting a duel against Brazil's Flamengo, however, the Copa Libertadores champions were stunned in the last-four by Al Hilal who carved out an impressive 3-2 win.
The Saudi Arabian side will be appearing in their first ever Club World Cup Final and are 4/1 to lift the trophy and 11/1 to win in 90 minutes.
Real Madrid vs Al Hilal Tips
Real Madrid's Ballon d'Or winner Karim Benzema missed the semi-final win due to injury and remains a doubt for the Final.
However, this Real Madrid side are blessed with some exceptional attacking talent, including the brilliant Vinicius Junior.
The Brazilian opened the scoring in the 4-1 semi-final victory, taking his tally to 15 goals so far this season, four of which have been netted in his last seven matches.
We're backing the winger to sizzle once again on Saturday at 7/5 (bet365) to score within 90 minutes, as he did in his side's Champions League final victory over Liverpool.
For the Bet Builder we are sticking with bet365 for a treble that requires the aforementioned in-form Vinicius Junior to score, both teams to score, and Real Madrid to win by two or more goals, which is being priced up at 7/1.
Real Madrid will be confident of not only winning, but scoring some goals in the process, as they've done in previous Club World Cup Fiinals: from a 4-1 win over Al-Ain last time out in 2018, to a 4-2 over Kashima Antlers two years earlier.
I'm therefore backing the Spanish sides to win this one by two goals or more in the 90 minutes, which has landed in their last three Club World Cup games.
However, Al Hilal will be no pushovers as their stunning 3-2 win over Flamengo showed, and I think they will find a way to score in normal time.
As for Vinicius, his goalscoring form is discussed in more detail in the above section.
Don't forget! Place a pre-match bet on the standard Full Time Result market for Real Madrid vs Al Hilal and if the team you back to win goes 2 goals ahead at any stage during the match, bet365 will pay out your bet in full regardless of whether the opposition comes back to draw or win the match.
