Juventus wraps up its Club World Cup group stage campaign by facing Manchester City in the final match of Group G, with first place on the line. The game is scheduled at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, kicking off at 3 PM local time (9 PM Italian time). The referee for the clash will be the Frenchman Clement Turpin.
Juve`s form
Tudor`s team has shown excellent performances and won the first two matches of the tournament in America, easily defeating Al Ain (5-0) and Wydad Casablanca (4-1). Currently, having scored one more goal than Guardiola`s City, Juve has the advantage of securing first place in the group even with a draw, which would place them in a potentially easier part of the knockout stage bracket. Unlike the previous matches where the same lineup was confirmed, the Croatian coach is considering some rotation for this game. Manuel Locatelli and Dusan Vlahovic might start, replacing one of Thuram or McKennie, and Kolo Muani, respectively. Also, be mindful of yellow cards: suspended players Cambiaso, Conceiçao, Gatti, McKennie, and Thuram would miss the round of 16 tie if cautioned.
Manchester City`s form
Guardiola`s side has also secured two victories, overcoming the Moroccan team (2-0) and the Emirati team (6-0). However, to avoid landing in the tougher part of the bracket and potentially facing a major clash in the round of 16 immediately (most likely against Real Madrid), City must win against Juve. In recent months, Manchester City has significantly changed its squad: between January and June, as many as 8 new players arrived. These include reserve goalkeeper Bettinelli (from Chelsea), defenders Khusanov (from Lens), Vitor Reis (from Palmeiras), and Ait-Nouri (from Wolverhampton), midfielders Nico Gonzalez (from Valladolid) and Reijnders (from Milan), and forwards Marmoush (from Eintracht) and Cherki (from Lyon). These signings totaled over 330 million euros. Furthermore, for this Club World Cup, Pep has welcomed back his key midfielder, the latest Ballon d`Or winner, Rodri. City also has players at risk of suspension if cautioned: Ait Nouri and Khusanov would miss the round of 16.
