Manchester City takes on Al-Hilal on Monday, June 30, at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida. Kickoff is set for 9 p.m. ET or 6 p.m. PT. That makes it a 2 a.m. BST start in the UK and a 11 a.m. AEST kickoff in Australia on Tuesday morning.

Al-Hilal’s path to the quarterfinals at the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup was even more surprising. The runners-up in the 2024-25 Saudi League finished second in Group H behind Real Madrid, meaning they had to play Manchester City in the Round of 16.
