Haaland’s game, galactic in its goalscoring but usually rigidly defined to between the goal posts, increased its bandwidth in Orlando

Manchester City face Juventus on Matchday 3 of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, but star striker Erling Haaland is notably not in the starting lineup for the English side. Manchester City and Juventus square off this Thursday in a high-profile Group G clash to close out the group stage of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025.

City’s attacking front will feature Savinho, Marmoush, and Jérémy Doku, as Guardiola tests his depth against a strong Juventus side. With both teams already through to the Round of 16, this match determines who tops the group and gets a more favorable draw.
