Real Madrid will be looking to bounce back from an underwhelming performance in their opening fixture when they face Pachuca in Group H of the FIFA Club World Cup. 

Having failed to win in the first outing, Los Blancos will be fired up for this clash. They should have the upper hand over the Mexican side, who have been erratic lately. 

Real Madrid Form


Real Madrid began their lClub World Cup campaign with an underwhelming 1-1 draw with Saudi side Al Hilal. They struck midway through the first half but were pegged back just before the break.

It was not the best start to Xabi Alonso's era and the manager will be demanding a response from his star-studded squad. They are unbeaten in five of their last six matches across all competitions, picking up four wins in that run and will be keen to show their true quality.
 
With Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo, Real Madrid have no problems going forward and have scored five of their last seven goals after the break. However, they have failed to keep a clean sheet in five of their last seven matches, while four of those fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals. 

Pachuca Form


Pachuca suffered a 2-1 defeat to Salzburg in their opening Group H fixture. They went into the break one-goal down but struck back following a weather delay before conceding the winner midway through the second half.
 
That result highlights Pachuca’s recent inconsistent form, having claimed just one regulation time win in their last seven matches across all competitions. Jaime Lozano's team have been beaten three times in that run. 

Pachuca often show some fight and have scored in seven of their last 10 matches across all competitions, with four of their last five goals coming after the break. They are without a clean sheet in five of their last six matches, with four fixtures in that run producing over 2.5 goals. 

Head to Head


Real Madrid and Pachuca met in the 2024 Intercontinental Cup final, with Los Blancos claiming a 3-0 victory.

Verdict

Pachuca often show some fight and could set out to frustrate Real Madrid. However, Los Blancos will come into this clash desperate to make a statement and their superior quality should see them past the Mexican club.
 
Neither defence has been convincing lately and both teams are expected to score here, with the second half likely to produce more goals. With Pachuca seeing over 2.5 goals in four of their last six fixtures, a repeat could also be considered.
