Fluminense vs. Al Hilal Prediction, Picks & Odds for Friday's FIFA Club World Cup Quarterfinal

A quarterfinal nobody expected is on tap as we feature two picks and a bonus bet for Friday's Fluminense vs. Al Hilal showdown.

A pair of surprise quarterfinalists set the stage for our Fluminense vs. Al Hilal prediction and odds. Anyone who said they expected this quarterfinal when the Club World Cup started is either telling a porky pie or has a functioning crystal ball.

The two squads have the second- and third-longest Club World Cup odds, but we still have two feature picks and a bonus bet for Friday's tilt. 

Al Hilal - who dealt Man City a knockout blow - are the slight betting favorites at our best sports betting sites, and the match from Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Fla., starts at 3 p.m. ET (DAZN).

No matter the sport, defense wins titles.

That's the theory I'm employing in a potentially unpredictable quarterfinal between two teams that, before the Club World Cup adopted an expanded format, had about as much chance of playing each other as the San Jose Sharks and the Columbus Blue Jackets in the Stanley Cup Final.

I'm as floored by that statement as I'm by Fluminense's defensive prowess. Excluding a bizarre and wacky 10 minutes before the interval against Ulsan, in which they allowed two goals, Fluminense haven't conceded a goal at the Club World Cup.  

That's four matches minus 10 minutes of flawless defensive work.

Going back a wee bit further, the Brazilian side has conceded once in the last six.  

While Al Hilal exploded for four goals against an out-of-sorts Man City defense, they netted three times in the previous three matches. I expect Renato Portaluppi's side to smother and suffocate Al Hilal, turning it into a match of one or two chances.

I like the Under, but I like Fluminense to advance more. We also backed the Brazilians in our Club World Cup best bets
