Yildiz had three shots and scored in Juventus’ 5-0 win over Al Ain in their opening game of the Club World Cup and will continue to be a threat here against a Wydad Casablanca side that conceded six shots on target from 15 shots in total against Manchester City.

Yildiz had 23 shots on target across his 28 starts in Serie A during the 24/25 season (0.86 per 90) which was a record that returned seven goals in the Italian top-flight for the winger, making him Juventus’ third top scorer with only Randal Kolo Muani (eight) and Dusan Vlahovic (10) managing more goals than Yildiz in the most recent season - Yildiz is Juventus’ top scorer when taking away penalties.

Yildiz should be able to continue showcasing his quality against a side that Juventus are heavily backed to beat. Their positive and attacking performance against Al Ain can act as the basis for a good result here, which would see them into the knockout stages.

Conceicao committed two fouls in Juventus’ 5-0 win over Al Ain as they kicked off their Club World Cup campaign in the best way possible. The winger can be a touch reckless with his challenges and is often eager to win the ball back high up the pitch.

Conceicao committed 24 fouls across his 12 starts in Serie A during the 24/25 season (1.62 per 90) which is a record that supports his foul record from the opening game of the tournament. Conceicao showed that even with Juventus having 63% of the ball, that he can be a player to watch for fouls here. Conceicao was also shown a yellow card for his infringements against Al Ain. 

Juventus look to be in a good position to qualify from the group, a win here would secure their progression to the knockout stages without too much fuss and allows them to rest and rotate players for their final and most difficult game of the group stages against Manchester City.

Wydad put in a decent fight against Manchester City, especially in the second half, but ultimately lacked the quality to punish Pep Guardiola’s side and make the most of the chances that they managed to generate. Juventus’ strong attacking trio of Muani, Yildiz and Conceicao should cause the Casablanca backline plenty of problems.

Conceicao was Juventus’ standout player in their 5-0 victory over Al Ain in their opening game of the Club World Cup. He scored twice in a Player of the Match display, hitting the target with two of his three shots in the game. This performance against Al Ain should serve as a springboard for Conceicao to build on and continue being a key player for Juventus in the Club World Cup.  

During the 24/25 season, Conceicao contributed to nine goals across his 37 appearances for Juventus in all competitions. Given his talent, he will be aiming to improve that tally next season. He also demonstrated his quality in Portugal’s recent Nations League triumph, coming off the bench to score a crucial goal against Germany, securing their place in the final, which Portugal went on to win.  

Conceicao’s strong start to the tournament should provide him with the confidence to add another goal contribution as Juventus aim to secure their place in the knockout stages. With an attacking lineup featuring Randal Kolo Muani and Kenan Yildiz supporting him, Conceicao has plenty of options to create chances. The winger averaged 1.88 chances created per 90 minutes during the 24/25 Serie A season, highlighting his creative ability.

Locatelli was shown nine yellow cards during the 24/25 Serie A season, more than any other player in the Juventus squad. He can be pretty reckless with his challenges in the middle of the park and could end up finding himself in the spotlight here in trying to stop the threat on the counter from Wydad Casablanca which was certainly evident in their clash against Manchester City.

Locatelli committed 46 fouls across his 36 Serie A appearances during the 24/25 season (1.46 per 90), which is a record that suggests that the 27-year-old should put in a few challenges which catch the eye of the referee. Some of the officials at this tournament have been quite quick to produce cautions, so the barrier for a booking may continue to be quite low here.

Juventus showed in their opening game of the Club World Cup that they have the attacking pedigree to truly punish some of the lesser sides that they will come up against in this completion. Yildiz, Muani and Conceicao as well as the likes of Vlahovic and Timothy Weah on the bench, complete a more than functional attacking unit for Juventus, which they can use to come away comfortable winners against Wydad Casablanca.

The Moroccan side may have a tough time getting on the scoresheet themselves, given how strong Juventus were defensively during the 24/25 Serie A season, which aids this selection. It should be a case of how many goals Juventus are able to score here, Igor Tudor’s side should have no issue in breaking down Wydad Casablanca, just as Manchester City did early o,n which laid the foundation for a comfortable win.
