Manchester City vs Al Ain
Manchester City are seeking a second straight win in Group G of the FIFA Club World Cup as they face Al Ain.
The Citizens were comfortable and in their opening fixture and will be keen to replicate that performance here. They should have too much quality for the UAE side, who appear to be out of their depth in this competition.
Manchester City Form
Manchester City began their campaign in the FIFA Club World Cup with a routine 2-0 victory over Wydad. They were largely untroubled throughout the contest, with first half efforts from Phil Foden and Jeremy Doku earning them the win.
Beyond the result, there were other positives as new signings Rayan Cherki and Tijjani Reijnders both showed flashes of quality while Foden looked back to his best. Manchester City have now won seven of their last 10 matches across all competitions, a run stretching back to April.
Manchester City's attack remains sharp and they have scored in both halves in two of their last three matches. Pep Guardiola's team have also maintained some defensive solidity lately, keeping clean sheets in six of their last nine matches across all competitions.
Al Ain Form
Al Ain fell to a disappointing 5-0 defeat to Juventus in their opening Group G fixture. They were on the back foot for much of the contest and were constantly being carved open, having struggled to maintain their defensive discipline.
The result and performance suggest that Al Ain could be out of their depth in this competition and are likely to find things difficult. The defeat is also part of a recent erratic run for Vladimir Ivic's team, who have claimed four wins and lost six times in their last 13 matches across all competitions.
While the defensive frailties were obvious in the first game, another issue was also highlighted in that defeat to Juventus. They have struggled to find their attacking cutting edge lately, failing to score in two of their last three matches across all competitions.
Head to Head
The only previous meeting between Manchester City and Al Ain was a friendly in 2014, which ended 3-0 in favour of the Citizens.
Verdict
Manchester City are renowned for their attacking quality and progressive style, and are expected to score in both halves as they have done in two of their last three matches. The Citizens have also shown some defensive solidity lately and having won to nil in two of their last three matches, could be set for a similar outcome.
With Manchester City expected to score in both halves and keep a clean sheet, they could also be backed to win both halves here.
