FIFA Club World Cup Second Round Games

  • When: Thursday, Feb. 4

Ulsan Hyundai Vs Tigres U.A.N.L Money Lines

  • Ulsan Hyundai +488 / Tigres U.A.N.L -188

Although Ulsan Hyundai could upset Tigres U.A.N.L, soccer in Korea where Ulsan hails from has matured quite a bit, the CONCACAF champions have played well in Mexican Liga BBVA since the start of the season. Tigres is 3-1-1 in their last 5. The draw happened on January 28. They’ve played while Ulsan has been on the bench since that time. We’re grabbing the chalk.

FIFA Club World Cup Free Pick: Tigres U.A.N.L

Ulsan Hyundai Vs Tigres U.A.N.L Handicap

  • Ulsan Hyundai +1 (-113) / Tigres U.A.N.L -1 (-116)

We’re not in love with Tigres U.A.N.L on the handicap. Although they should win, they had to travel from Mexico to Qatar for this match. Their last game happened versus Necaxa five days ago. The draw could have taken something out of them. The goal looms large.

FIFA Club World Cup Free Pick: Ulsan Hyundai

Ulsan Hyundai Vs Tigres U.A.N.L Over/Under Total

  • Over 2 ½  (-123) / Under 2 ½ (-106) 

Both teams play excellent defense. Although Tigres should win, they’re likely to score no more than a single goal. If they do beat Ulsan by more than 1, we lose our handicap bet. Instead of going against ourselves, it makes sense to play the under and hope we’re right on all three. 

FIFA Club World Cup Free Pick: Under 

Ahl Aly Vs Ahl Duhail Money Lines

  • Ahl Aly +125 / Ahl Duhail +204

Ahl Duhail plays in their home nation but they’re up against a team that’s dominating. Hailing from Egypt, Ahl Aly has 4 wins and a draw in their last 5. They last played on November 27 while the last time Ahl Duhail hit the pitch was Sep. 24. Duhail lost that match. Aly should take this.

FIFA Club World Cup Free Pick: Ahl Aly

Ahl Aly Vs Ahl Duhail Handicap

  • Ahl Aly PK (-158) / Ahl Duhail PK (+119)

The handicap prevents a draw. So even though we love the odds on Ahl Duhail they’re not in good enough form and have been on the bench too long for us to back them. We’ve got to accept the -158 and push our moneyline pick on Aly.

FIFA Club World Cup Free Pick: Ahl Aly

Ahl Aly Vs Ahl Duhail Over/Under Total

  • Over 2 ½ (-108) / Under 2 ½ (-101)

We like the under. There’s a chance, though, that Ahl Aly rolls Duhail by 2 to 3 goals. Home nation advantage would mean more if Qatar and Egypt weren’t so close to each other. Who knows? Aly may bring their fans. Those fans could bolster them to a 2 to 3 goal victory. If Duhail gets a goal, this goes over.
