Juventus v Manchester City: Forecast, Odds and Bets

Giugno 24, 2025

L'attesissimo scontro tra Juventus and Manchester City will take place on Thursday, 26 June 2025, at Camping World Stadium in Orlando. Fans across Europe can tune in at the following kick-off times: Italy, Germany, France and Spain at 21:00 CEST, and the UK at 20:00 BST.

With both sides already guaranteed a place in the round of 16 of the FIFA Club World Cup, this final Group G fixture is essentially a battle for first place in the standings. While progression is secured, bragging rights and momentum heading into the knockout phase are very much up for grabs.

Come si presentano le due squadre?

Juventus head into the match in solid form, having registered consecutive wins in their opening Group G games. Igor Tudor’s side delivered a convincing 4-1 victory over Wydad Casablanca courtesy of a brace from Kenan Yildiz, and they lie just one point shy of topping the group. However, defensive reinforcements like Bremer and Cabal remain sidelined through injury, while Arkadiusz Milik is still on the road to recovery.

Manchester City have also enjoyed a perfect start, claiming back-to-back wins to seal their spot in the last 16. Pep Guardiola’s men boast a squad depth that allows them to rotate freely, but they will face a cautious and well-organised Bianconeri side determined to protect their unbeaten record in Group G.

La nostra previsione

Expect a tense and tactical affair, with Juventus set to adopt a measured approach and sit deeper than usual, inviting City to probe for openings. Manchester City are clear favourites on paper, but the Italian champions have shown they can strike on the counter, especially through the in-form Kenan Yildiz.

We anticipate a low-scoring encounter where the margins will be fine. A narrow Manchester City win or even a draw would reflect the cautious mindset of both teams. Given City’s attacking firepower and Juve’s defensive reshuffle, our lean is towards a 1-0 or 2-1 victory for Manchester City, though a stalemate cannot be ruled out.
