THE PREDICTION

The latest edition of the Club World Cup – and the last using its current format – kicks off with Saudi powerhouse Al Ittihad taking on New Zealand side Auckland City, who qualified for the competition having won the most recent iteration of the OFC Champions League. The Kiwi outfit are no strangers to this competition and even managed to finish in third place in 2014, but they are clear second favourites here against this star-studded Al Ittihad side, who will be playing in their home country. With the likes of Fabinho, N’Golo Kante and Karim Benzema – all previous winners of this competition – in their ranks, Al Ittihad should have too much for their opponents and are likely to sail into the second round.

TIP: AL ITTIHAD TO WIN
