On Thursday evening, at the FIFA Club World Cup, it's crunch time for Al Hilal, who after two ties, need to get the job done against an already eliminated Pachuca team. The team from Saudi Arabia has so far played with promise at this tournament, tying with Real Madrid, before delivering a similarly tight performance to tie with Salzburg. They now need to show a little more offensive punch and come out on top against a team that has been quite poor, let's be honest.
The Mexicans were always going to be up against it in a group with the likes of Real Madrid and Salzburg, and they've certainly not caused any shocks, primarily by being far too open at the back. Having struggled to contain the men from Austria, they came up short against Los Blancos, losing by three goals to zero, despite facing ten men for most of the contest. Is their any hope for them here? We'll find out at Geodis Park in Nashville.

Our Al Hilal vs CF Pachuca Prediction
Ultimately, the Mexicans have nothing to fight for here, while the men whho ply their trade in Saudi Arabia know that they can grind out a win by delivering a similar tight performance that saw then tie with Salzburg last time out. Given that the Al Hilal boys have conceded little, but not created a great deal either, a low-scoring game looks a little generously priced. Our Al Hilal vs Pachuca Pick: Under 3.0 Asian Total.
