Manchester City lead the way here and will expect to top the group with three wins out of three. Pep Guardiola's side may have endured their worst season since the Catalan's arrival but the 10-times English champions have added Rayan Cherki, Tijjani Reijnders and Rayan Aït-Nouri to their squad since the end of the domestic season, and will be feeling confident about their chances in the United States.

What’s the key game?

With apologies to Al Ain and Wydad fans, the big one here comes from Orlando on June 26th. Juventus face Man City in what will surely be a one-off match to see who finishes top of Group E and avoids a likely clash with Real Madrid in the last 16.

Can you give me a player to watch for each team?

Whoever City brought in to replace departing legend Kevin De Bruyne was going to have big shoes to fill, but new signing Cherki has the skills and the confidence to be a very useful player indeed. The 21-year-old Frenchman will want to make a fast start at his new club, and should be fascinating to watch.

Kenan Yıldız (Juventus)

Kenan Yıldız has emerged as a key figure for Juventus during 2024/25. The young midfielder was included in the Serie A Team of the Season and was nominated for the Golden Boy as the best under-21 player in Europe. His technical skills and versatility have made him an indispensable for the Bianconeri.

Kodjo Fo-Doh Laba (Al Ain)

Kodjo Fo-Doh Laba is possibly the best goalscorer you've never heard of. The Togolese forward has scored nearly one-goal-per-game since joining Al Ain in 2019, and was key in their AFC Champions League triumph in 2024.

Mohamed Rayhi (Wydad)

Mohamed Rayhi has been Wydad's top scorer in 2024/25, netting 13 goals. His contributions have been vital in Wydad's domestic league campaign, where they secured a third-place finish.
