The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup’s Group H finale pits Red Bull Salzburg against Real Madrid on Friday, June 27 at Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia.
With both sides level on four points, but Los Blancos holding the edge on goal difference, this clash will determine which club, more than likely, joins Al Hilal in the next round if they win their game against Pachuca.
🔴 Salzburg Hunt Historic Upset | Home Win = 8.47 💵
Red Bull Salzburg began their debut CWC campaign by stunning Pachuca 2-1 before grinding out a 0-0 draw with Al-Hilal.
Coach Thomas Letsch’s side will capitalise on their momentum and aim to exploit Madrid’s makeshift defence after Asencio’s red card against Pachuca.
This game will also present the Austrian side with an opportunity to avenge their 5-1 defeat to Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League last season.
⚪ Madrid Look to Seal Top Spot | Away Win = 1.33 💵
Real Madrid overcame a red card to win 3-1 against Pachuca—goals from Jude Bellingham, Arda Güler, and Federico Valverde underpinned their resolve.
Xabi Alonso’s men must now deliver a composed performance to confirm group leadership and secure their place in the next round of the competition.
Against a Salzburg side that seems to have improved their performance since the last meetings between the two sides and without star man Kylian Mbappe, the world will be paying attention to see how Xabi Alonso fares.
🗝️ Key Players & Team News 📰
• Salzburg: Absences of Kawamura, Schlager, and Yeo test depth, but Oscar Gloukh’s creativity and Maurits Kjaergaard’s return bolster options with Bidstrup in fine form.
• Real Madrid: Mbappé remains doubtful with gastroenteritis; Antonio Rüdiger is available after a long time out injured, but it is uncertain if he will be starting alongside Dean Huijsen in central defence. Tchouameni is the other option to replace suspended Asencio.
