We say: Wydad AC 1-2 Al-Hilal (after extra-time)

While the Moroccans have been tough defensively all year long, it is hard to judge that body of work given that all of their clean sheets in 2023 have occurred during the domestic campaign. On Saturday, they will have to contend with a Saudi squad who have plenty of cohesion, firepower and experience in these tournaments, all attributes that we believe will propel Al-Halal to a narrow victory.
