Al-Hilal vs Gwangju: Prediction for the Match on April 25, 2025

Prediction for the AFC Champions League quarterfinal match between Al-Hilal and Gwangju: It will occur on April 25th. Hilal are coming off a 2-2 draw in their domestic league to Shabab in the same arena last week while Gwangju secured a phenomenal victory in their last league game. Hilal have been a bit inconsistent in their domestic title defense but Gwangju still remains the underdog in this game, and we are excited to see all that’ll unfold on Friday. Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Form in the League: DWDLW

Hilal continues to grapple with a string of inconsistencies in the league as they’ve faltered in their league title defense, and they find themselves 6 points behind league leader Ittihad. Jorge Jesus hopes to get his consolation from the AFC Champions League. Hilal is fresh off a 2-2 draw to Al-Shabab at the same venue they’ll be playing in Gwangju, and even though they had the game against Shabab under control in the second half, they were eventually pegged back later in the second half. 

In the AFC Champions League, Hilal made it to the quarterfinals after thrashing Pakhtakor on a 4-1 aggregate. Pakhtakor won the first leg at home but got the shock of their lives when they traveled to the Kingdom Arena, the same arena Gwangju is coming to on Friday. It’ll also interest you to know that Hilal has not lost a home game in the AFC Champions League this season, so it’ll take more than just attacks on the flank to overpower Hilal at the Kingdom Arena. 

As always, Alexander Mitrovic and Salem Al-Dawsari will start upfront in the regular 4-4-2 formation by Jorge, and Marcos Leonardo might come off the bench in the second half owing to the fact that a big quarterfinals game is around the corner. I believe João Cancelo will also start this game as he is back fully in the team

🔖 Al-Hilal Probable starting lineup (4-4-2)

Bono – Albulayhi, Koulibaly, Al-Tambakti Cancelo,— Malcom, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Neves, Cesar – Al-Dawsari, Aleksandar Mitrovic

👤 Head coach: Jorge Jesus

They are also doing well in their domestic league with 4 victories, 4 draws, and 2 losses from the 10 games played, while they remain in 3rd place. Their last league game was against Seoul, and they emerged victorious with a 1-2 scoreline. 

In the AFC Champions League, Gwangju made it to the quarterfinals after coming back from 2 goals down in the first leg to win on aggregate by a 3-2 scoreline. Can they rise to the occasion once again and get a positive outcome on Friday?

  • This will be the first meeting between the two sides, and the option for the favorite Hilal to win is offered on the 1xBet bookmaker website for 1.24 odds;
  • Some pundits believe Gwangju stands a chance against the legendary Hilal and the odds for Gwangju to win or draw this game is offered on the Bet365 bookmaker website for odds of 4.15;
  • Hilal have scored at least twice in 5 of their last 6 home games, and the option for them to score a minimum of two goals here is offered on the Betway bookmaker website for odds of 1.30 odds;
  • There have also been more than 10.5 corners in 4 of Hilal’s last 5 games.

Al-Hilal continues to face inconsistencies in their domestic league as they remain 6 points behind league leaders, Al-Ittihad. In light of this, Jorge Jesus will channel his energy to a much bigger cause as he will be aiming to win Hilal their 5th AFC Champions League crown. Gwangju are the underdogs, which means we cannot totally rule them out, especially with Hilal’s recent form. 

Our match prediction is a win or draw and a total of under 3.5 goals for Hilal with a coefficient of 1.89 in the 1xBet bookmaker.

Our betting tip on the match is for Al-Hilal to score a goal in both halves for a coefficient of 1.71 in the Betway bookmaker.

Lastly, Al-Hilal to win the first half at 1.62 odds in the Bet365 bookmaker.
