Juventus take on the visitors Wydad in the round 2 match of FIFA Club World Cup. The match will be played on Sunday, June 22nd at Lincoln Financial Field (Philadelphia, PA).
Juventus are determined to finally get back to strong performances. The Bianconeri managed to bounce back from a string of setbacks and boardroom scandals by finishing the 2023/24 season on a high. They not only secured a Champions League spot by climbing to third place in Serie A — behind only the two Milan giants — but also lifted the Coppa Italia under Max Allegri, who was sacked immediately after the final. However, the following choices, including a bold and expensive squad overhaul and the appointment of Thiago Motta, failed to deliver results. Fortunately, Igor Tudor stepped in as a reliable firefighter and managed to edge out Roma to finish fourth in the league. At the Club World Cup, Juventus kicked off with a dominant 5-0 victory over Al-Ain, showing renewed attacking flair and confidence. Their sharp form and recent cohesion suggest they’re approaching this tournament with serious intent.

Wydad remains one of the pillars of Moroccan football. In 2022, they clinched both the Botola title for a record 22nd time and their third CAF Champions League crown. But in the following campaigns, their form dipped, and despite reaching another CAF final in 2023, they came up short. In the 2024/25 domestic season, they mounted a late surge but still finished only third, a full 16 points off the league winners. Their Club World Cup campaign started with a tough matchup against tournament contenders Manchester City. The English side scored twice early and then coasted to a comfortable 2-0 win, exposing Wydad’s limitations at this level.
This will be the first-ever meeting between Juventus and Wydad. Juventus clearly have the upper hand in quality, form, and experience. Expect the Italians to win convincingly — back them with a -1.5 goal handicap.
Prediction for the match: Juventus to win with -1.5 handicap.
