Juventus vs Manchester City Live: How to Watch, Stream, and Match Predictions

On Thursday, Manchester City and Juventus will play for the top spot in Group G in Orlando. After winning their first two games in the competition, both teams have already advanced to the round of 16.

The winner of the group will probably play Red Bull Salzburg in the round of 16, while the runner-up will play Real Madrid and then be in the same bracket as PSG and Inter Milan.

While City must win to guarantee the more favorable route, Juventus can claim top spot in the group and an easier path to the knockout stages with just a draw. So far, Pep Guardiola has used a lot of rotations as City defeated Wydad AC 2-0 and then destroyed Al Ain 6-0 in their most recent match. Tijjani Reijnders, Rayan Cherki, and Rayan Ait-Nouri, the new recruits, have all made an impression.

Juventus has the advantage over City in the tiebreaker of goals scored, with the teams tied on goal differential, after defeating Al Ain 5-0 and Wydad 4-1. With Tim Weah coming off the bench in the first game, USMNT player Weston McKennie has been crucial in midfield thus far, and Kenan Yildiz and Randal Kolo Muani have been a serious threat in attack. Juventus’ fresh look under Igor Tudor will be put to the test in this matchup against City.

Focus on Juventus team news

Juventus has seen many changes in the past 12 months, and Igor Tudor is leaving his imprint with a 3-4-2-1 configuration since taking over in March. Yildiz and Fabio Conceicao have excelled in their playmaking roles, while Kolo Muani is ideal at connecting all the pieces in an attack. Juve has a much deeper team currently, and they can easily get the draw they need to win the group if you look at their bench.

Focus and news about the Manchester City team

Pep Guardiola has previously stated that City needs to cut their enormous team before the 2025–2026 season begins, even if they have a lot of choices. City will be hoping Phil Foden continues to return to his best form and Rodri’s recuperation from a chronic injury will be accelerated. New additions Cherki and Ait Nouri both showed promise in the victory over Al Ain. The defensive play of City has been excellent thus far, but they will soon be put to the test against Juventus’ skilled and quick attackers.

Prediction for Juventus vs. Manchester City

Given what is at stake, this is going to be extremely tight. Erling Haaland appears hungry and won’t let up on the opportunities he had in the previous game, so expect City to finish the job. Manchester City 1-2 Juventus.
