Al Hilal Set for Key Clash Against Salzburg in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup
All eyes will be on Audi Field in the United States as Al Hilal of Saudi Arabia faces off against Red Bull Salzburg in a highly anticipated matchup during the second round of the group stage in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.
Al Hilal comes into the game riding a wave of momentum after a hard-fought 1-1 draw with Real Madrid in their opening fixture. Midfielder Rúben Neves converted a penalty to cancel out Gonzalo García’s opener for the Spanish side. The result marked a positive start under the new leadership of Italian coach Simone Inzaghi, who recently took over following his departure from Inter Milan.
On the other side, Salzburg kicked off their campaign with a 2-1 victory over Pachuca of Mexico, putting them at the top of Group H with three points. Thomas Letsch, who succeeded Dutchman Pep Lijnders, has quickly guided the Austrian side to success both domestically—finishing second in the Austrian league—and now on the international stage.
Group H Standings So Far:
- Salzburg: 3 points
- Al Hilal & Real Madrid: 1 point each
- Pachuca: 0 points
A win for Salzburg would guarantee their place in the Round of 16 before their decisive match against Real Madrid in the final group stage fixture. Meanwhile, Al Hilal will be aiming to keep their qualification hopes alive with a crucial win.
Strengths and Weaknesses
Salzburg has been relentless in attack, scoring in each of their last 16 matches. However, their defensive issues persist—they’ve kept just one clean sheet in their past nine games.
Al Hilal, by contrast, has shown strong offensive form, having scored in each of their last 15 official matches. That includes 10 games in the Saudi Pro League, where they finished the season as the most prolific team with 95 goals in 34 matches.
Coach Inzaghi will be counting on this attacking momentum. He also holds a personal edge, having won three of four previous managerial meetings against Salzburg.
