-------------------------------------
Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund, two well-known European rivals from past Champions League encounters, will face off at the Club World Cup in New Jersey. The winner will move on to the semi-finals to play either Bayern Munich or Paris Saint-Germain.
Team Analysis:
Real Madrid have shown strong form at the revamped Club World Cup, advancing to the quarter-finals after impressive wins over Pachuca, Salzburg, and Juventus. With Xabi Alonso at the helm, the team has adopted a more dynamic style, highlighted by a dominant performance against Juve. They remain unbeaten in the tournament's history and are aiming for a sixth title.
Borussia Dortmund, revitalized under Niko Kovac, also arrive in top form, having climbed the Bundesliga table and advanced through the group stage with solid performances. They defeated Monterrey in the last 16, led by Serhou Guirassy and Karim Adeyemi. Despite Madrid’s recent dominance in their head-to-head record, Dortmund’s resurgence makes them a serious challenger in this high-stakes clash.
Player Situation:
Xabi Alonso, familiar with Dortmund from his time at Leverkusen, may approach the match cautiously. He has shifted Real Madrid from a 4-3-3 to a 3-5-2 in the U.S., but it’s unclear which formation he will use. Up front, he must choose between the returning Kylian Mbappe and in-form Gonzalo Garcia.
Jude Bellingham will face his former club again, though his brother Jobe is suspended. Dortmund may rely on Marcel Sabitzer or Julian Brandt in his absence. Serhou Guirassy remains their key attacking threat. Both teams are missing key players due to injuries or suspensions.
Result Prediction:
Real Madrid, seen as clear favourites, are expected to advance past Borussia Dortmund, having a psychological advantage and growing momentum under Xabi Alonso's leadership.
Predicted Result: Real Madrid 2-1 Borussia Dortmund.
