The Club World Cup 2023 is being held in Morocco in February. This is the 19th edition of a tournament which began in the year 2000.
The competition brings together the continental champions from all six FIFA confederations, from Real Madrid in Europe to Auckland City in Oceania.
There will be seven matches in total, split between the Ibn Batouta Stadium in Tangier and the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat. The final will be held at the latter on 11 February 2023.
The odds for the Club World Cup 2023 are provided by the Caesars sportsbook, which has a special offer of up to $1250 on Caesars.
Real Madrid are the strong favorites to win the Club World Cup 2023 with the best online sportsbooks. The European champions are always widely fancied to win this competition, and things are no different this year.
Madrid will only need to win two matches to triumph in Morocco. Their semi-final against either Al Ahly and Seattle Sounders, while a probable final against Flamengo will be tougher but eminently winnable.
Flamengo are second on the list of favorites. South America’s representatives have pushed their European counterparts hard in recent years, including Flamengo themselves in a narrow 1-0 loss to Liverpool in 2019.
Al-Hilal of Saudi Arabia and Wydad Casablanca of Morocco are given an equally slim chance of winning this tournament. Of the two, perhaps home advantage gives Wydad a slight edge.
Neither Al Ahly nor Seattle Sounders is likely to triumph this month. The winner of their second-round tie will face Real Madrid in the semi-finals of the tournament.
Somewhat confusingly, the upcoming tournament in Morocco is officially called ‘Club World Cup 2022’, because it features the teams that won last year’s continental competitions.
The previous edition of the Club World Cup, held in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) 12 months ago but called ‘Club World Cup 2021’, was won by Chelsea.
The then-European champions beat Al Hilal 1-0 in the semi-finals, before a slender 2-1 triumph over Brazilian outfit Palmeiras after extra time in the final.
