Bayern Munich vs Auckland City – Betting Preview

It’s almost time for the FIFA Club World Cup and this year, the competition has taken on an entirely new format. We’ll be seeing 32 clubs from six different confederations come together in manner that will determine who the best team in world football truly is. Some hate the new style of doing this and others love it, but regardless of which camp you fall into, there’s no denying that this fills the void created by a lack of men’s international football this summer.

The manner in which teams were able to qualify also caused some controversy, but what we do know is this: some of the biggest players and biggest teams in the game will head to the United States in an attempt to write their name into the history books. Today, we’ll be taking a look at what promises to be an intriguing clash between Bayern Munich and Auckland City.

Bayern Munich were able to reach the top of the mountain once again in German football last season as they captured the Bundesliga title. While they still have work to do on the continental front in order to regain their throne, there’s no denying the fact that this is still one of the biggest clubs in the sport today, and they’re hoping to prove it when they travel stateside.

As for Auckland City, they’re pretty frequent flyers when it comes to the Club World Cup. They are a true juggernaut within the landscape of New Zealand football and although it’s difficult for them to match up to some of the bigger names in this competition, you can bet they’re going to put their best foot forward in an attempt to shock the world.

So whether you’re interested in ways to remove Google reviews or you just want to know a little bit more about this game, we’re here to break down what we think is going to happen when these teams collide.

Do Auckland have much of a prayer in making something happen in this game? Probably not. Almost certainly not, in fact. They are easily one of the biggest wildcards and although they’ve been on this stage plenty of times before, we’re not convinced that it’s going to make much of a difference within the new format.

As for Bayern, they are brimming with confidence and they will be of the firm belief that they can make a deep run in the Club World Cup. It’ll require their big name stars to really come out and play like they want it, and they’ll also need to hope that Auckland don’t just throw 11 men behind the ball – which is always a possibility.

Alas, when things really get going, we expect the floodgates will open and we feel like Bayern will have a lot of success in exploiting their opponents in just about every way imaginable. Therefore, we’re going to say that the boys from Germany will win this game, and we don’t think they’ll have to break much of a sweat to do it.

Official prediction: Bayern Munich 3-0 Auckland City
