Fluminense vs Al-Ahly prediction and betting tips on December 18, 2023
FIFA Club World Cup
Game Prediction
On Monday, there will be predictably few football events. Therefore, more attention will be focused on the match in Jeddah, where Fluminense and Al-Ahly will face off in the semi-final of the Club World Cup. The best teams from South America and Africa will take the field – who will prove stronger? The website's analytical department has developed a forecast for this match on December 18, 2023.
Fluminense has refreshed its achievements this season.
"The Three-Colored Rio" is rightfully considered one of Brazil's most popular clubs. It has been quite successful, with four victories in the national championship. In the current season, however, the team slid from the third to the seventh position in the local Serie A. But all the players under Fernando Diniz (who, by the way, also serves as the coach of the national team, albeit not very successfully) compensated for this by performing well in the Copa Libertadores. If in the past, their maximum was reaching the final 15 years ago, this autumn, they defeated Boca Juniors in the decisive match. It's only disconcerting that since December 3, after the conclusion of the Brasileirao, the club hasn't played any matches.

Al-Ahly rightfully represents the "Black Continent."
"The Red Devils" dominate the country's championship, with over 40 titles, including winning the previous season. They currently have good statistics, but many matches in the local Premier League have been postponed. Moreover, the Egyptians have won the CAF Champions League 11 times, including in 2020, 2021, and 2023. This success earned them a spot in the Club World Cup. In the tournament, they have already managed to defeat the host representative, Al-Ittihad, here in Jeddah. Again, Benzema scored, but he only notched a prestige goal in the 92nd minute – before that, the African opponent managed to score three goals in the span of an hour of playing time.
