Our prediction for this FIFA Club World Cup match:
Audi Field in Washington DC will host a highly-anticipated FIFA Club World Cup game between Al Ain and Juventus. Al Ain failed to impress in the 2024/2025 United Arab Emirates League, with the team finishing the process in 5th place in the standings and, as a result, they are seen as big underdogs in Thursday’s clash. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be left winger Soufiane Rahimi, who is likely to prove a handful for Juve back-line.
The Bianconeri, on the other hand, finished the last Serie A campaign in fourth place in the standings, with the team booking their spot in the Champions League. Juventus were producing fine displays in the season finale and given their big ambitions for the showpiece tournament in USA, anything but a routine away win would be a big surprise. The likes of Bremer, Juan Cabal, Manuel Locatelli, and Arkadiusz Milik are all expected to miss out with injuries for the Serie A outfit.
Highlighted Player (Weston McKennie):

After starting his youth career at FC Dallas, Weston McKennie moved to Germany in the summer of 2016, signing a contract with Bundesliga side Schalke 04. The American footballer made his Bundesliga debut on May 20, 2017, coming as a substitute in the 77th minute of the match.
The talented midfielder scored his first goal in the German elite division on August 6, 2018 in a 2-0 win at Fortuna Dusseldorf. Speaking of his international career, the Schalke footballer made his debut with United States of America on November 14, 2017 in a friendly against Portugal, finding the net on his debut.
Weston McKennie has two caps for the USA U20 team as well. His main position is central midfield, but he used as both defensive and attacking midfielder as well. The USA international was born in Fort Lewis, Washington on August 28, 1998. His preferred foot is right.

Al Ain will take part in the 2018 FIFA Club World Cup hosted by United Arab Emirates.
