Looking at the team news, neither Real Madrid nor Pachuca can advance to the knockout stages with a win in this particular fixture, but you can bet they'll both be fighting hard for those crucial points. After their opening matches, both sides will be keen to finish their group stage campaign on a high note.
Real Madrid kicked off their tournament with a 1-1 draw against Al Hilal. They were incredibly close to securing all three points, but a late penalty attempt was saved, leaving them with a share of the spoils. Unfortunately for their fans, Kylian Mbappé will be sidelined due to illness and won't be featuring in this Sunday's game.
Pachuca, on the other hand, narrowly lost their opening match 2-1 to FC Salzburg. Their new head coach, Jaime Lozano, might once again have to do without the services of their dynamic winger, Oussama Idrissi. He picked up an injury before their first game and is doubtful for the clash against Los Blancos.
Interestingly, this isn't the first time these two clubs have met on a big stage. This match is a rematch of the FIFA Intercontinental Cup 2024™ final held in Doha, Qatar. Back then, Real Madrid emerged victorious, defeating the Mexican side 3-0. Will Pachuca be looking for a bit of revenge, or will Real Madrid assert their dominance once again? It's all to play for.
