Inter Milan finally seem to have shaken off the hangover from their Champions League thrashing and are favourites to line up a quarter-final slot at the Club World Cup by beating Fluminense.
The Italian giants could only draw 1-1 with Monterrey as new boss Cristian Chivu kicked off his reign then needed two late goals to sneak a 2-1 win over Urawa Red Diamonds.
But they beat River Plate 2-0 in their final group game and now take on South American opposition again in the shape of Fluminense.
The Brazilians are undefeated so far at these finals so it's a big test for an Inter side missing some key players.

Inter Milan vs Fluminense top betting tips
Two of Fluminense's group games ended in 0-0 draws while Inter haven't been firing on all cylinders so far, which makes a goalfest pretty unlikely in this game.
Veteran Thiago Silva is expected to shake off an injury to start and that will be crucial for the Brazilians as he won nine of his 11 duels in the stalemate with Dortmund and made seven clearances.
The bookies are banking on a tight game, with under 2.5 goals just 8/13 and betting against BTTS not much bigger at 4/6. Combining those bets will take you to 21/20 in a bet builder.
Refs at this tournament have been pretty card happy and Inter's clash with River Plate produced eight yellows and two reds. We also saw a sending-off in both of Saturday's last-16 games so it could pay to go for more cards here.
Fluminense picked up three yellows in their final group game and could land a few more as they try to keep Inter at bay. Midfielder Matheus Martinelli was booked in the draw with Dortmund and is 11/4 at BoyleSports to pick up another card.
Manchester City vs Al-Hilal
Manchester City have arguably been the most impressive side at this tournament and head into the knockout stages with their tails up after thrashing Juventus 5-2 in the final group game.
Pep Guardiola spent big on the eve of the Club World Cup to freshen up a side that had performed miserably by City's high standards in the Premier League and Champions League.
That has given them a spring in their step again, with new boys Tijjani Reijnders and Rayan Ait-Nouri particularly impressive so far, while Rodri's return from long-term injury is another big boost.
They now face another big-spending side in the shape of Al Hilal and there's added spice to this game as it's effectively Abu Dhabi going up Saudi Arabia.
Al Hilal went unbeaten in a group that included Real Madrid and Red Bull Salzburg so they will have to respected.
But City should have too much class if they repeat that performance against Juve and backing them to be winning at half-time and full-time pays 20/21 with BoyleSports.
Ait-Nouri looks to have given them a new dimension down the left flank and chipped in with an assist against Juventus. The full-back is 10/3 at Bet365 to set up another goal and 5/4 to have an effort on target. Those bets look good if Guardiola gives him the nod to start again.
Mjallby v Malmo
There's a big game in Sweden tonight as surprise leaders Mjallby look to claim a hugely significant win over champions Malmo.
Few people expected Mjallby to be mounting a title push this season after they finished last term in fifth place, a massive 15 points behind Malmo.
But the teams have now swapped places in the table, with Mjallby leading the way and the champions toiling down in fifth.
Malmo find themselves eight points behind so this is a game they need to win to spark their title defence back into life.
Their away form has been poor, with just two wins from six, while Mjallby have yet to lose at home, winning five of their six. That suggests the leaders could be worth a punt at 6/4 with BoyleSports.
Backing a tight game is probably safer though and the half-time draw pays evens, while backing most goals to come after the break is a little shorter at 20/21.
