Team Reviews
Mamelodi Sundowns
Mamelodi Sundowns, coached by Miguel Cardoso, qualified for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup as one of Africa’s top-ranked clubs (2021-2024), bolstered by their 2021 CAF Champions League title. They are third in Group F with 3 points after a 1-0 win over Ulsan HD on June 17, 2025, at Inter&Co Stadium, Orlando, and a 4-3 loss to Borussia Dortmund on June 21, 2025, at TQL Stadium, Cincinnati, where Iqraam Rayners scored twice. Their form shows 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in their last five competitive matches, averaging 1.6 goals scored and 1.4 goals conceded per game. Key players include Rayners (2 CWC goals) and midfielder Teboho Mokoena. Sundowns’ strengths are their attacking intent (1.97 goals per game over 30 matches) and passionate fanbase, but defensive lapses (4 goals conceded vs. Dortmund) and a must-win scenario to advance are challenges. They need a victory and a Dortmund loss to Ulsan to reach the Round of 16.
Fluminense RJ
Fluminense, led by Filipe Luís, tops Group F with 4 points after a 0-0 draw against Borussia Dortmund on June 17, 2025, at MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, and a 4-2 win over Ulsan HD on June 21, 2025, at MetLife Stadium, with Jhon Arias and Kevin Serna scoring. Their form is strong, with 4 wins and 1 draw in their last five, averaging 1.9 goals scored and 0.8 goals conceded. Key players include Arias (1 goal, 4 assists in 2025) and Serna (3 goals). Fluminense’s strengths are their midfield control (92% pass completion vs. Ulsan) and unbeaten run (8 games), but injuries to Otávio Henrique Passos Santos (Achilles) and Yeferson Soteldo (muscle) limit their squad. A draw secures their knockout spot, with a win ensuring first place.
Head-to-Head
Mamelodi Sundowns and Fluminense have no prior competitive meetings, making this Group F match on June 25, 2025, at Hard Rock Stadium, Miami, at 3:00 PM EDT (21:00 SAST), their first clash. Sundowns’ physical style faces Fluminense’s technical prowess, with posts on X noting Fluminense’s edge after their strong showing against Dortmund.
Prediction: Mamelodi Sundowns 1-2 Fluminense RJ
This do-or-die Group F match sees Sundowns needing a win and a Dortmund loss to Ulsan to advance, while Fluminense can progress with a draw. Sundowns’ Rayners and Mokoena could exploit Fluminense’s injury-hit squad, but their defensive issues (4 goals conceded vs. Dortmund) may be exposed by Arias and Serna. Fluminense’s midfield dominance and form (8-game unbeaten streak) make them favorites, with the ProTipster community predicting a Fluminense win (11 tips) and both teams scoring (1.69 odds). Posts on X highlight Sundowns’ slim hopes and Fluminense’s offensive intent. Both teams’ trends (Sundowns: 60% of last 5 over 2.5 goals; Fluminense: 40%) suggest a high-scoring game. Referee Yael Falcón Pérez may issue cards if Sundowns’ physicality escalates. The match streams free on DAZN.com, with TBS, UniMás, and TUDN broadcasts.
Fluminense is likely to score through Arias or Serna, with Rayners possibly netting for Sundowns. Fluminense’s technical quality and draw advantage should secure a narrow victory, advancing them as Group F leaders, while Sundowns’ campaign likely ends despite a spirited effort.
