Already certain of qualification to the round of 16 of the Club World Cup thanks to their successes against Al Ain and Wydad Casablanca, Juventus and Manchester City will play one against the other in the challenge that will determine the first and second place finishers in Group G. An aspect not to be underestimated since the group is crossed with Group H, the one with Real Madrid.

At the Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida, Igor Tudor is expected to confirm the eleven that took the field in the 4-1 thrashing of Wydad, with Kalulu, Savona and Kelly in defense, a four-man midfield with Alberto Costa, McKennie, Khephren Thuram and Cambiaso, and an attack with Conceiçao and Yildiz supporting Kolo Muani.

Also on the other side few doubts for Pep Guardiola, who will entrust the keys of the offensive sector to Erling Haaland, supported by Foden, Cherki and Marmoush. In midfield, former Milan player Tijjani Reijnders is confirmed, while on the flanks the task of keeping the center of gravity of the game high will be entrusted to Matheus Nunes and Nico O’Reilly.

Probable lineups

JUVENTUS (3-4-3): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Savona, Kelly; Costa, McKennie, Thuram, Cambiaso; Conceiçao, Kolo Muani, Yildiz.

All. Tudor.

MANCHESTER CITY (4-2-3-1): Ederson; Nunes, Dias, Aké, O’Reilly; Silva, Reijnders; Foden, Cherki, Marmoush; Haaland. All. Guardiola.
