Pachuca, from Mexico, faces Botafogo this Wednesday (11/12), at 2pm (Brasília time), at Stadium 974, in Doha, Qatar. It is the debut of both teams in the Intercontinental Cup, the 2024 Club World Cup.
The Mexican team competes in the tournament as they are the current champions of the CONCACAF Champions League. The club has six continental tournament titles. But it is going through a bad phase: in the Mexican Championship, it ended its participation with 16th place (among 18 teams), adding just 13 points.
Pachuca’s last official match was a month ago, and the team has only won one of its last eight matches in the Mexican (DDDEDVDD).
