Juventus vs Manchester City Prediction and Betting Tips | June 26th 2025

Juventus will square off against Manchester City at Camping World Stadium in their final group stage match of the FIFA Club World Cup on Thursday. This is a crucial match for both teams as the winner will finish as the Group G winners and avoid a potential clash against Real Madrid in the round of 16.

The Old Lady got their campaign underway with a comfortable 5-0 win over Al Ain. Randal Kolo Muani and Francisco Conceição bagged braces in that win. They continued that form with a 4-1 win over Wydad Casablanca last week. Abdelmounaim Boutouil's own goal gave them the lead while Kenan Yıldız bagged a brace. Dušan Vlahović scored from the penalty spot in stoppage time.

City overcame Wydad 2-0 in their campaign opener and registered a 6-0 win over Al Ain in their previous outing. İlkay Gündoğan bagged a brace, and Claudio Echeverri scored his first goal for the club from a free kick. Erling Haaland scored from the penalty spot while Oscar Bobb and Rayan Cherki added late goals in the second half.

Juventus vs Manchester City Prediction

The Bianconeri have enjoyed a great debut in the Club World Cup, scoring nine goals in two games thus far. They are unbeaten in their last seven games in all competitions, recording five wins, and will look to build on that form.

Teun Koopmeiners has started from the bench in the two games thus far and will likely be handed a start here. Randal Kolo Muani is likely to be rested in place of Dušan Vlahović.

City have a perfect record in the Club World Cup thus far, winning all four games without conceding, and will look to continue that form here. Notably, they have suffered five defeats against Italian teams, with four registered against the Old Lady.

Pep Guardiola will likely be without the services of Claudio Echeverri, who picked up an ankle injury last week. Guardiola will probably opt for squad rotation here.

While Juventus have been the dominant side in this fixture, considering City's record in the Club World Cup, we back the English side to eke out a narrow win.
