FIFA Club World Cup – Round 3
Wydad vs Al Ain
Wydad Casablanca has had a tough season, losing both of their group-stage games but they did manage to score a goal against Juventus. Recently, they lost to Manchester City and Juventus. Important players like Ryoma Watanabe and Nordi Amrabat have been part of their offense, with Amrabat playing in their last game.
Al Ain has had a really hard time, losing both of their matches without scoring any goals and letting in 11 goals. They also faced big losses against Juventus and Manchester City, but they did win some local games against Al-Nasr SC and Al-Sharjah. Still, their defense has been really weak, and their offense hasn’t been able to score in the tournament.
According to the analysis, it looks like Wydad Casablanca is going to win. This shows how good they are at scoring, Al Ain’s weaknesses in defense, and their desire to finish the tournament strong.

1 (Wydad to Win)
