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

The Bavarians dominated the proceedings in their opening match of the mega event.

Bayern Munich are all set to lock horns with Boca Juniors in the group stage fixture of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 edition. The interesting contest between the two teams will take place at the Hard Rock Stadium.

The Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich secured a dominating 10-0 win against Auckland City in their first group stage match of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. Vincent Kompany-led Bayern Munich bossed the proceedings all over the field, which led them to cruise to an easy win and secure three points. They will be looking to continue their winning run here.

The Argentine Primera División side Boca Juniors were held to a 2-2 draw by Benfica in their opening game of the FIFA CWC. They performed well in the first half, but gave the lead away in the second half. Boca Juniors do have a good attacking rate.

They are not going to back down against the Bavarians, but it is not going to be an easy fixture for them.

Players to Watch

Jamal Musiala (Bayern)

It was an all-around effort from the whole team, but it was Jamala Musiala who was exceptionally brilliant on the field. He can control the midfield and surely can score goals.

Miguel Merentiel (Boca Juniors)

The 29-year-old put Boca Juniors in front against Benfica, as he scored the opening goal of the game. Miguel Meretiel did well and will be looking to come up with a better performance against the Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.
