Manchester City did not win a trophy in 2024/25, a rare occurrence for them in the Pep Guardiola era. Recognizing the roster needed a refresh, they began the rebuilding process in January and have accelerated it ahead of the Club World Cup.
Indeed, City now have Rayan Cherki, Rayan Ait-Nouri and Tijjani Reijnders in their ranks, while Rodri is available again after a serious knee injury. City are justifiably among the favorites to win the Club World Cup.
Guardiola is keen to restore that winning feeling in his squad. Bigger prizes lie ahead in 2025/26, but City would love to go all the way this summer.
Wydad AC are flying the flag for Morocco at this tournament. Qualification came as a result of their triumph at the CAF Champions League in 2021/22, but Wydad are unfortunately not the force they were three years ago.
It is hard to see the North Africans getting out of a group which also contains Juventus and Al Ain. This is a particularly tough game for Wydad, who are simply not accustomed to facing teams of City’s class.
They will no doubt try their best to keep Guardiola’s side at bay, but that is much easier said than done.
Wydad AC will attempt to sit deep and disrupt Manchester City’s rhythm. The conditions may well suit them; Wydad are certainly more used to playing in the heat than City are.
Yet that will not be enough to bridge the gulf between the two sides. City will want to make a statement of intent in their first outing in the USA, and once they are ahead it will be hard for Wydad to fight back.
Guardiola’s team should win both halves of this game at Lincoln Financial Field.
