Juventus Aim for Another Dominant Start Against Wydad AC in Club World Cup Clash
Alright, so here we are gearing up for another exciting matchup in the Club World Cup—Juventus versus Wydad AC. This game has already sparked interest in the football world, and for good reason. If Juventus' blistering start in their opening game was anything to go by, Wydad AC could be in for a very tough ride.
Let’s talk about what’s already happened. Juventus absolutely dismantled Al Ain in their first Group G fixture, going up 4-0 by halftime and eventually cruising to a 5-0 victory. Randal Kolo Muani, who’s on loan from PSG, was on fire—bagging a brace and proving he’s more than ready to shine on this global stage. The Italians looked sharp, aggressive, and ruthless. That’s exactly what you want from a European heavyweight in a tournament like this.

On the other side, Wydad Casablanca struggled against Manchester City. They conceded less than two minutes into the game and never really recovered, falling 2-0 without ever looking like a threat. To be fair, City are a juggernaut, but it showed how much of a gap there is between the elite European clubs and sides like Wydad.
Now, when you look at the odds and predictions, it’s clear where the smart money is going. Juventus are heavily favoured to win, and not just win, but likely to be leading by halftime. In fact, Juve have opened the scoring in seven of their last ten matches—and they’ve been ahead at the break in most of those. There’s every reason to believe they’ll come out flying again, especially with a potential group decider against City coming up next. You don’t want to leave things to chance in a tournament like this.
Even with a few injury setbacks—like Bremer and Milik ruled out—Juventus still have the depth and experience to dominate. Manuel Locatelli is back and pushing for a start, while the rest of the squad looks balanced and in form. As for Wydad, they’ll need a miracle to break down Juventus' defense, let alone come away with points. They’ve failed to score in four of their last five games, which doesn't bode well against a side that’s kept clean sheets in three of their last four wins.
Randal Kolo Muani is the one to watch—he’s in great form, scoring six goals in his last eight matches. If you’re into betting, him scoring again feels like a solid pick. And then there’s Alberto Costa, who’s been aggressive lately and could rack up a couple of fouls, maybe even a booking.
In short, this feels like a match Juventus will want to put to bed early. Expect intensity from the kickoff, and if the Old Lady gets rolling like they did against Al Ain, it could be another long evening for Wydad. This one has all the signs of a classic European powerhouse asserting its dominance.
