Bayern Munich take on the visitors Boca Juniors in the round 2 match of FIFA Club World Cup. The match will be played on Saturday, June 21st at Hard Rock Stadium (Miami Gardens, FL).
Bayern had a tough stretch in recent years. Initially, they narrowly held on to the Bundesliga title thanks to Dortmund's stumble on the final matchday. But even after strengthening their squad — headlined by the record-signing Harry Kane — they slipped to 3rd place the following season, finishing without a single trophy. That led to the arrival of Vincent Kompany, despite his relegation with Burnley from the Premier League. Still, the Belgian manager achieved his primary goal — restoring Bayern to the top of the Bundesliga. However, they were eliminated early from the domestic cup by Bayer Leverkusen and lost a thrilling Champions League tie to Inter. Their Club World Cup debut was a breeze — a 10-0 demolition of Auckland City, more a training session than a match.

Boca Juniors have continued their string of setbacks this season. The Genoese last won silverware back in 2022, capturing domestic cups and the league title. Since then, however, they’ve struggled to replicate that success, finishing 6th in the 2024 Argentine league standings. This year has been no different. They were eliminated from the Copa Libertadores qualifiers by Alianza Lima due to the away goals rule — losing 0-1 in Peru and only winning 2-1 at home. In the Apertura, they reached the playoffs despite some late slip-ups, but were knocked out 0-1 by Independiente. Their Club World Cup opener looked promising as they stormed to a 2-0 lead against Benfica, but after red cards on both sides, they conceded twice and had to settle for a draw.
This will be the first-ever meeting between the German and Argentine giants. Bayern are clearly the stronger team and should be expected to win by more than a narrow margin. Back the German champions to win with a -1.5 goal handicap.
Prediction for the match: Bayern Munich to win with -1.5 handicap.
