Auckland City vs Boca Juniors Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | FIFA Club World Cup 2025

Both sides are winless in the tournament.

Auckland City are all set to battle Boca Juniors in their final group stage fixture of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup. The interesting contest between the two teams is scheduled to take place at the GEODIS Park.

The New Zealand-based club Auckland City have come up with poor performances. First, they received a thrashing at the hands of Bayern Munich and were later dominated by Benfica in their second FIFA Club World Cup 2025 game. A win for them will only be a consolation prize, but they will be looking to give their all.

Boca Juniors are also winless in the current edition of the mega competition. They will be keen to win their upcoming game with a big goal difference. If Benfica lose their next game, Boca Juniors might have a chance to get to the knockout stage of the tournament. They were held to a draw in their opening game and lost to the Bavarians in their second.

Players to Watch

Myer Bevan (Auckland City)

Leading Auckland City from the attacking front, Myer Bevan will have to step up and score a goal or two. The New Zealand-based club have not been able to score any goals in the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. Bevan has done well for his side in the domestic league, but it’s his chance to come up with a special performance on the world stage.

Miguel Merentiel (Boca Juniors)

Miguel Merentiel scored the only goal for Boca Juniors when they last faced Bayern Munich. It was not enough, and they fell prey. Leading his side in the attacking front, Miguel Merentiel is going to cause problems for the opponent’s defence.
