Real Madrid vs Juventus: When, How to Watch & Score Predictions
Real Madrid take on Juventus today in the Round of 16 of the FIFA Club World Cup at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium in Florida. Kick-off is at 8 p.m. Moroccan time (GMT+1) and fans can catch the action live for free on the DAZN website and app. Los Blancos, under Xabi Alonso, have grown into the tournament. They stumbled in the opening group stage game with a 1–1 draw against Al Hilal but quickly hit their stride, beating both Pachuca 3–1 and Salzburg 3–0 respectively. The football is fluid, Vinícius Júnior is on fire, and the biggest headline is about Kylian Mbappé who could finally make his Club World Cup debut. He's fit, available, and rumoured to feature off the bench. Juventus, meanwhile, have been quite unpredictable. Igor Tudor's squad smashed Al Ain 5–0, made light work of Wydad, then got walloped 5–2 by Man City. That last one came with half the team rested, so let's not overreact. The return of Kenan Yildiz, their young breakout star winger, and Randal Kolo Muani should give Madrid something to think about. But Juve must get their defensive act together if they want to avoid being ripped apart in transition. Injuries aren't helping. Nicolò Savona is out. Federico Gatti's got a fever. And Weah and Mbangula are still out of the matchday team sheet after refusing to join Nottingham Forest. Madrid, on the other hand, look sharp and fully focused. Xabi Alonso is treating this tie as the first big test since he replaced the Italian maestro Carlo Ancelotti. And given the midfield they're rolling with—Valverde, Bellingham, Arda Güler — they've got the legs and the guile. However, there's still a chance the match could be suspended. Reports suggest a potential electrical storm looming. If it strikes, play would be halted for at least 30 minutes – a major disruption for players, coaches, and fans alike. During the Chelsea vs Benfica clash, the game was stopped for nearly two hours, killing the flow of the game and draining the players' momentum. Predicted Lineups Real Madrid (3-5-2): Courtois; Rüdiger, Tchouaméni, Huijsen; Alexander-Arnold, Valverde, Bellingham, Arda Güler, Fran García; Vinícius Júnior, Gonzalo Juventus (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Rugani, Kelly; McKennie, Locatelli, Thuram, Cambiaso; Conceição, Yildiz; Kolo Muani Prediction Vinícius continues to dazzle. Mbappé sneaks in a cameo. Yildiz gives Juve hope, but Madrid's midfield wins the war. A close one but MWN expects the Spaniards to march on to the quarters. Verdict: Real Madrid 2–1 Juventus Tags: Club World CupJuventusKylian MbappeReal MadridVinicius Jr

Club World Cup: Real Madrid beats Salzburg 3-0, advances to round of 16
PHILADELPHIA: Vinícius Júnior scored a goal and assisted on another in Real Madrid's 3-0 win over Salzburg on Thursday night that secured the Spanish powerhouse first place in the Club World Cup's Group H and a spot in the round of 16. Vinícius gave the 64,811 soaking wet fans at Lincoln Financial Field something to cheer for by scoring on a left-footed shot right outside the penalty box in the 40th minute. Jude Bellingham left Vinícius in position to score with a breakaway pass that took advantage of the wet field conditions caused by the rain. Eight minutes later, a deflected pass by Mamady Diambou left Vinícius one-on-one against Joane Gadou inside Salzburg's penalty box. Having no angle to shoot, Vinícius delivered a backheel pass to Federico Valverde that left the Uruguayan wide open to score from 10 yards out. Antonio Rüdiger suffered an apparent hamstring injury in the 60th minute after completing a long sprint down the right wing. He continued playing, but was subbed out six minutes later. His availability will be one to watch for Real Madrid's upcoming game as they are thin at the center back position due to multiple injuries and a suspension to Raúl Asencio. Gonzalo García put the game to bed in the 84th minute with a chip shot after a counterattack he initiated by stealing the ball from Gadou in midfield. With the win, Real Madrid became the ninth European team to advance to the round of 16. From the 12 European teams in the tournament, only Atlético Madrid, Porto, and Salzburg were eliminated in the group stage.
