Analysis

Manchester City had a hot performance in the group stage, winning all 3 matches and scoring 13 goals in their attack, making them the สมัครสมาชิก UFABET วันนี้ รับเครดิตฟรีทุกวัน champion of Group G. As for Al Hilal, the giant from the Saudi Arabian league, they had to fight until the last match to advance to the next round, finishing in 2nd place in Group H. In the first 3 matches, they were unbeaten, but only tied 2 times, which was a draw with Real Madrid. 

If comparing the overall team potential, players and form of play, it must be said that Manchester City is quite superior. At this time, Pep Guardiola is building a new era team with new forces mixed with the old set, which is considered quite usable. Coming up against Al Hilal, who have changed their coach to use Simone Inzaghi, the team still needs to adjust to the new game plan quite a bit. 

In this game, if we compare them head to head, “The Sky Blues” look stronger, with a more diverse attack. They should be able to find a way to break through Al Hilal’s defense. It depends on how sharp they are. I am still confident that the famous Premier League team will win and advance to the next round.

Expected Score

Manchester City 3-1 Al Hilal
