          PREVIOUS MEETING

          This Friday’s clash represents our first against the Brazilian side.

          However, we do share some familiar faces with them, namely in the form of youngster Kayky, who we signed from Fluminense in 2021.

          LAST TIME OUT

          In a highly entertaining semi-final at the King Abdullah Sports City, an own goal from Marius Hoibraten and fine strikes from Mateo Kovacic and Bernardo Silva secured City’s safe passage through to the Club World Cup final in our first ever appearance at the tournament.

          As for Fluminense, second half goals from Jhon Arias and John Kennedy secured their victory over Al Ahly of Egypt to reach the final.
