Player to watchSergej Milinkovic-Savic, Al-Hilal -- The Serbian midfielder already worked with the Italian coach when they were both at Lazio and he should drive his teammates to learn the tactical ideas of the new coach in the shortest time possible. This is why he's becoming a central player for Inzaghi also at Al-Hilal, and his performances will definitely reflect the ideas of the former Inter manager.
Storyline to watchAl-Hilal making improvements under Inzaghi -- It's still early to see the changes brought by Inzaghi in the team, but Al Hilal have averaged 53% possession and matched their opponents with 42 shots over two games. However, they have fewer shots on target -- six compared to 13. Salem Al Dawsari leads the team with five chances created, seven shots, and 10 crosses, just behind Ruben Neves (14), who tops the team with 150 completed passes, 57 more than anyone else.
PredictionAl-Hilal are expected to win against Pachuca, but their qualification will mainly depend on the other game of the group stage between Real Madrid and RB Salzburg. Pick: Al-Hilal 2, Pachuca 0.
