Prediction: 2-1
Al Ain
A place in the FIFA Club World Cup final will be at stake when River Plate and Al Ain square off against each other at Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium on Tuesday afternoon. River Plate set up a meeting with Al Ain by beating their bitter local rivals Boca Juniors in the Copa Libertadores final and they must be brimming with confidence ahead of the trip to United Arab Emirates. One of the man to watch in the Argentinian side will be Jose Quintero, who found the net in the 3-1 win over Boca Juniors at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu. Al Ain did well to beat the likes of Team Wellington and ES Tunis to book their place in the semis, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in Tuesday’s football match against los Millonarios, who proved their worth in the Copa Libertadores final.
