Big Win In Store for Citizens

We expect Man City to win by three goals or more against UAE Pro League side Al Ain. There’s the chance to secure odds of -121 at -2.5 on the Asian Handicap and we’re confident the favourites will cover the line.

City Landed Opening Game Victory

Manchester City were winners in their Club World Cup opener. Wydad Casablanca were beaten 2-0 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. The Citizens enjoyed 69% possession and had six shots on target, while Phil Foden and Jeremy Doku each scored one goal.

Al Ain were beaten 5-0 in their opening encounter, being turned over by Juventus at Audi Field in Washington, D.C. Vladimir Ivic's team finished with just 36% possession and had five shots on goal.
