Man City vs Wydad starting lineup

Man City introduced two new players in midfield, Cherki and Reijnders, but used a squad with many substitutes. Key players such as Dias, Gvardiol, Rodri, Silva and Haaland were all on the sidelines.

Man City have just gone through a trophyless season, but are still one of the strongest teams in the world with a diverse style of control and attack. Pep Guardiola's team showed their ambition to win the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup by recruiting 3 quality new players in a row before the tournament, including Rayan Ait-Nouri (Wolves), Rayan Cherki (Lyon) and Tijjani Reijnders (AC Milan).

In addition to the new recruits, the return of Rodri promises to help Man City regain its inherent strength. The Spanish midfielder's injury was an important reason for the blue team's decline last season. According to the prediction of the supercomputer Opta, Man City is rated overwhelmingly with an 87.2% chance of winning in 10,000 pre-match simulations, compared to Wydad's 4.1% and an 8.7% draw.

Meanwhile, Wydad have been using interim coach Mohamed Amine Benhachem, who has replaced Rhulani Mokwena since April. They are without two stars Ayoub Boucheta and Renan Viana due to injury, and have had inconsistent form.

Wydad may have defended well in the first half, but struggled to cope with the constant pressure from Haaland, Marmoush and Guardiola's new signings. A convincing win would give Man City a huge advantage in Group G, ahead of tougher games against Juventus and Al Ain.
