Real Madrid can seal top spot with a win over RB Salzburg in the final match of Group H of the FIFA Club World Cup.

Form

RB Salzburg started their FIFA Club World Cup campaign with a 2-1 win over Pachuca but were then held to a 0-0 draw to Al Hilal.

The Austrian side were wasteful in front of goal having missed two big chances against Al Hilal, generating 1.1 xG from 6 shots on target.

They have now won four of their last six games across all competitions.

Salzburg have been defensively vulnerable though with just two clean sheets kept in ten matches while both teams have found the back of the net in six of their last eight games.

Real Madrid head into this fixture on a strong run of form with five wins in their last seven games in all competitions.

Their last match was a hard fought 3-1 win over Pachuca following an early red card to defender Raul Asencio.

The Spanish side showcased their superiority with goals from Arder Guler, Valverde and Jude Bellingham enough to see off the Mexican side.

Real Madrid have been porous in defence though, yet to keep a clean sheet in this tournament and have conceded in six of their last eight games with both teams to score featuring in six of their last ten games in all competitions.
