Al Ahly vs Urawa Red Diamonds prediction and betting tips on December 22, 2023
Al Ahly from Egypt will play against Japan's Urawa Red Diamonds in the match for third place at the World Club Championship. The meeting will take place on December 22.
Al Ahly
This team from Egypt was not the favorite of this tournament, although it can still win medals in the competition. In the second round of the tournament, the Egyptian champion played against the Saudi Al-Ittihad, stuffed with world football stars, and managed to win with a score of 3:1.
Already in the semi-finals of the tournament, Al-Ahly competed with the Brazilian Fluminense and that game was dictated by the opponent. The Brazilians won with a score of 2:0 and overall looked head and shoulders above their opponents.
Now Al-Ahly has a test in the form of the Japanese Urawa Red Diamonds, who are approaching the head-to-head meeting as favorites.
Urawa Red Diamonds
This Japanese team is not having the best season and they are still far from becoming the champion in their country.
In the second round of the World Club Championship, Urawa beat Mexican Leon with a score of 1:0, and in the semi-finals of the tournament they had to meet the winner of the Champions League, Manchester City, who easily won with a score of 3:0.
Against Al Ahly, the Japanese have an opportunity to brighten up their season if they get bronze medals in the international tournament.
Match prediction
It is worth noting that Urawa concedes very often, while Al-Ahly looks good in attack. I will bet that both teams will score in this meeting.
