Juventus v Manchester City: Club World Cup 2025 – live | Club World Cup 2025

Key events

Manchester City only beat Juventus once at seven previous meetings. This victory occurred in the first round of the UEFA Cup in September 1976, Brian Kidd scoring the only goal of the first leg to Maine Road. Lots of good it did the citizens, who lost the leg back in Turin 2-0, Gaetano Scirea and Roberto Boninsegna with the goals at the Stadio Comunale. Names that evoke an Italian glamor from an appropriate old school, right there. Since then, these have been thin choices for City, with two draws and four defeats against the Bianconeri. The last of these losses occurred only seven months ago, during the slight bad failure of the city of the city. An opportunity for City to rehabilitate historical wrongs this evening.

The big news from City: Rodri started a match for the first time since he died of injuries against Arsenal last fall. Or is it the big news: Erling Haaland is back on the bench. Make your choice.

Juventus also made surprising changes in advance. Kenan Yıldız, who already has three goals in his name in this tournament, and Francisco Conceição of two goals both falls on the bench. Dušan Vlahović is not a bad replacement, to be fair.

Preamble

Manchester City has to beat Juventus this evening if they were to win group G. But what will be the reward is the assumption of anyone. We know that they would play the finalists in group H, but given the way in which Real Madrid has so far disappointed, and Al Hilal has impressed, there are not certain results there, and it is before bringing Red Bull Salzburg to the equation. So, with the winners of the H group while waiting for the finalists of the G group, and any combination of 1-2-3 possible in the group H later this evening, it is a launch of money as things are found. City and Juve could also treat this as a dry race for KOs, and what will be, will be. Beginning in Orlando, Florida, is at 8 p.m. the United Kingdom time at 3 p.m. It’s on!
