FIFA Club World Cup betting and spectator preview: Al Ahly and Bayern München meet at venue to measure strength and learn who makes it to the next stage.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Ahly and Bayern München.
These teams have little in common geographically as Bayern München have to travel 4400 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Al Ahly form and stats
5-1-0 is the performance here so far in the Premier League, giving Al Ahly a total of 16 from their 6 games here. Outstanding results! Al Ahly has a nice streak going on as they have played 22 consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Zamalek defeat 169 days ago. The Ahly fans aren't used to losing league-games here and will expect new points from this game. Al Ahly has played 26 games in a row here without a defeat.
Happy days for Al Ahly in their previous game, a FIFA Club World Cup match away at Al Duhail that ended with a 1-0 victory. Before that, Al Ahly played out a Premier League draw 0-0 when visiting Pyramids FC.
Goals are plentiful in the league this season as Ahly has scored 17 goals here in 6 home games. From these home matches, Ahly have conceded only 4 goals.
Bayern München form and stats
Bayern München have an excellent away record in the Bundesliga so far with 8-1-2 from 11 games. München have been producing wins at home as well, producing a total of five victories in a row regardless of arena. Having won their last three away games München has no reason to fear anyone.
München play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 1-0 victory visiting Hertha BSC. A home win before that, celebrating 4-1 vs Hoffenheim.
Bayern München goalie Manuel Neuer was high and low in the Hertha BSC game, contributing seven saves towards the victory.
Again, the away team are huge favourites in this match and any other result would be an upset.

This check revealed 23 matches with 19 wins as expected, three draws and one surprise home win. The favourites won twelve of these games by at least two goals.
