Juventus FC vs Wydad Casablanca Prediction: The Old Ladies will confidently pick up their second win of the FIFA Club World Cup

Juventus FC vs Wydad Casablanca: Prediction and odds on the Match on 22 June 2025

The second leg of the FIFA Club World Cup continues, with Juventus striving to secure their second win of the group when they lock horns against Wydad Casablanca at the Lincoln Financial Stadium on Sunday.

The Old Ladies started the competition with a deserved (5-0) victory over Al Ain, while the Red Castle bowed to a (2-0) loss against the defending champions, Manchester City. Both teams will be keen to pick up a win here, but Juventus are the closest to securing the maximum points. 

Juventus FC: form and statistics

The Old Ladies, who have been below par in the previous five seasons, but began their FIFA Club World Cup with an impressive performance against Al Ain. Juventus FC featured a very young and vibrant team against the UAE-based team, scoring five times to secure their first win of the group. The Old Ladies started the game at a fast pace, with Randal Kolo Muani breaking the deadlock in the 11th minute. Francisco Conceicao scored the second while Kenan Yildiz extended the lead, before Randal Kolo Muani doubled his tally to secure his side a (4-0) halftime victory. It was total domination from Juventus FC, who scored their fifth in the second half, as the game ended in a (0-5) comfortable victory over Al Ain.

Igor Tudor’s men had one of their best seasons in a long time after securing a Champions League spot. Juventus FC City wrapped up their league campaign in fourth place, picking up seventy points from thirty-eight games (38). They also conceded thirty-five (35) times, making them the joint second-best defence in Serie A. 

Juventus FC had a terrible Champions League campaign, as they were eliminated in the knockout phase. They were overwhelmed by PSV on (4-3) aggregate, losing the return leg after a (2-1) win on their home turf. 

The Old Ladies have lost just once in their last ten games in all competitions, and they’ll be a force to reckon with in this competition, especially after winning their opening game. 

Juventus FC Lineup

The Old Ladies had an excellent finish towards the end of the campaign, and there were some glimpses of attacking change. Randal Kolo Muani was very active and alive against Al Ain, and he would likely lead the line in this youthful Juventus team. 

Juventus FC Potential Starting Lineup (3-4-2-1)

Gregorio—Kelly, Savona, Kalulu—Cambiaso, Thuram, McKennie, Costa—Yildiz, Conceicao—Randal Kolo Muani

Out: Cabal

Head coach: Igor Tudor

Wydad Casablanca: form and statistics

The Red Castle bowed to a (2-0) loss against Manchester City in the opening game of the FIFA Club World Cup. Wydad Casablanca respected the defending champions so much that they had to play five men at the back and played most of the game in their box. Phil Foden pounced on a terribly saved shot by Benabid to score one of the fastest goals in the history of the competition. Wydad Casablanca had the chance to level but were indecisive in front of goal. With just three minutes to wrap up the first half, Manchester City doubled the lead, and nothing so serious happened in the second half, even though the Citizens were reduced to ten men. 

Wydad Casablanca have been a force in the Moroccan league over the years until the last two seasons. Wydad Casablanca settled for a third place in the Botola Pro League, picking up fifty-four points from a combined ninety. The Moroccan giant also failed to appear in continental football, after finishing up 6th in the season before. The Red Castle secured a spot in this year’s FIFA Club World Cup due to their consistency in the CAF Champions League over the years. 

Wydad Casablanca have managed one win across their last five matches in all competitions, scoring twice and conceding seven times. 

Wydad Casablanca Lineup

The Red Castle had to tweak their formation to be able to curtail the attacking threats from Manchester City. They reverted to the (5-4-1) formation, which worked perfectly fine, although the goals conceded were errors from their backline. They’ll go back to their usual formation this time, which might open up the game against Juventus. 

Wydad Casablanca Potential Starting Lineup (4-2-3-1)

Benabid—Moufid, Boutouil, Ferreira, Moufi—Zemraoui, Mounbarik—Armrabat, Rayhi, Lorch—Mailula

Out: Renan, Boucheta

Head coach: Amine Benhachem

Juventus FC vs Wydad Casablanca match prediction 22 June 2025

The Old Ladies were fantastic in their opening game, playing with a lot of confidence despite featuring a very young side. Juventus FC converted five of their seven shots on goal, with (63%) of the possession. On the other side, Wydad Casablanca failed to play their usual game, after featuring a five-man defence and four middle men. Unfortunately, they lost by two goals to nil against the defending champions.

Juventus FC had it easy against Al Ain, and they might not get such an opportunity against Wydad Casablanca. The Old Ladies are pretty confident heading into this game, and they are definitely going to dominate the Red Castle; however, they must apply caution against their opponent, who can not be totally underestimated.

The Old Ladies will attack more, so I expect them to get a goal before the break. Moreover, Francisco Conceicao and Kolo Muani will likely be the main men, and both players would frustrate Wydad’s defence and maybe score some goals here. 

Wydad Casablanca won’t be able to go toe-to-toe with Juventus, as they lack the quality to compete against one of the most respected European teams, but I think they might likely find the back of the net. 

My match prediction is for Juventus to score in both halves, with a coefficient of 1.95 on the Betway bookmaker. 

My betting tip is for both teams to score with a coefficient of 2.46 on the Bet365 bookmaker.

My final tip for this game is for Kolo Muani to score anytime, with a coefficient of 2.14 on the 1xbet bookmaker.

Good luck!
