Club World Cup Odds: Al Ahly vs. Real Madrid prediction, pick, how ... (ClutchPoints)

The Club World Cup is back, with Real Madrid looking to snatch their fifth trophy by winning their next to games in Morocco, with Egyptian outfit Al Ahly posing ...

Real Madrid will not cruise this tournament easily, as the Egyptian squad has shown better form, class, and showmanship in the pitch. Veteran midfielders Luka Modric and Toni Kroos are expected to return to the starting lineup after spending the previous matches off the bench, while Rodrygo will likely retain his place as the central striker in the absence of Benzema. Although Al Ahly has never won the Club World Cup, they have participated in the most games ever at 20. Their quest to their fifth trophy could be a boost the squad’s morale as they set themselves ready for the Champions League round of 16 fixture against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool. They could pose a challenge to the Spanish powerhouses, as they have been making their names known in leading the Egyptian Premier League with 37 points, six more than Pyramids in second place, and have won all 15 of their games. Los Blancos hope that they can get their rhythm back in the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium pitch after losing 1-0 away at Real Mallorca last Sunday.

Flamengo see Club World Cup dream dashed in loss to Al Hilal (ESPN)

There will be no dream final against Real Madrid for Flamengo at the Club World Cup, as the mighty Brazilian side collapsed under pressure.

[Vinicius Junior](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/252107/Vinícius-Júnior) and [Lucas Paqueta](http://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/234715/Lucas-Paquetá) then they could compete with anyone. Pulgar lost possession and a three man Al Hilal move ended with Vietto firing a fierce shot in off the bar, and the game was as good as over. [Gustavo Cuellar](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/196719/Gustavo-Cuéllar) was his only out and out midfielder, with Peruvian winger [Andre Carrillo](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/148189/André-Carrillo) improvised alongside him, replacing Kanno. If they still had the likes of former talents It was hard to spot with the naked eye, but the VAR image was clear enough. There was a brief late rally when a shot deflected kindly for Pedro to tap home his and Flamengo's second. The left-footed Gerson is very talented, but he is a different type of central midfielder. Brought back from Europe for a second time, Gerson is the club's main reinforcement for this season. But the bad start -- opening up the dreadful possibility of defeat -- had taken its toll. They come straight in at the semifinal stage, while his team had already played a quarterfinal match -- where they lost powerful midfielder The game is an emotional nightmare -- so close to the paradise of a dream final against European champions Would this prove a heavy responsibility to bear?

Club World Cup odds: Real Madrid favorites to win annual FIFA ... (Sporting News)

The FIFA Club World Cup is an annual event that pits the continental champions from each confederation against each other in a global tournament.

As the European participant, Real Madrid were considered overwhelming pre-tournament favorites. The Seattle Sounders were the first MLS side to ever take part in the Club World Cup, while Wydad Casablanca played as hosts in Morocco after winning the CAF Champions League. The over 2.5 goals total is only a slight favorite, with the injury to Karim Benzema evidently impacting upon predictions. Flamengo entered as the Copa Libertadores champion but suffered a shock elimination at the hands of Al Hilal. However, the South American champion usually puts up a fight and has occasionally sprung an upset. This year's tournament takes place in February 2023 but is referred to as the 2022 Club World Cup as it was originally scheduled for last calendar year before the World Cup pushed it back.
