Let’s talk About the Strongest Teams in the Club World Cup 2025
There are some huge teams to start with, but in this case, we’re going to go begin according to the Groups in order.
Inter Miami
You know why by default. Messi is the main reason, sure, but consider that the Club World Cup isn’t an easy championship made only for individual players. Despite this reason, Miami has been growing in MLS since Messi’s arrival. As we said, Inter cannot only depend on Messi’s skills, they need to improve other areas to win the next game against Porto, something that could be difficult.
PSG
The French team arrives to the tournament full of glory, after their recently conquer of the UEFA Champions League. Moreover, they are the most winner club in France; recently, they had won the Ligue 1 championship (since 2022) and the French Cup (2024 and 2025). 15 days has been passed since the last game in the final game against Inter at the UCL, and they crushed Atletico Madrid, a huge and devastating victory. They’re the main favorites to win by the way.
Bayern
German team is one of those who could receive a call to get into the Final game. Furthermore, their performance in Bundesliga and Champions League could lead them to classify in first place in Group C and so on. They also have a powerful striker, Harry Kane, who is favored to win the MVP according to MyBookie’s experts. Could be great a 10-0, but against a week rival it doesn’t enough to show the real Bayern. Against Boca Juniors in next game will be different.
Chelsea
Check out “The Blues”, they had won recently the UEFA Conference League 2025, they’re on the next Champions League Group stage and got the 4th place in the Premier League standings. Their performance have prevailed despite difficulties, showing a strong team with Cole Palmer as the leader, managing inside the court his team to a 1st place in Group D.
Inter Milan
Despite they had recently lost the Champions League final game doesn’t mean to keep an eye on them. Their performance lead the Nerazzurri to this stage. Additionally, you need to know that they couldn’t win the championship of the Serie A this 2025, also, on the Italy Cup tournament, they have lost on Semifinals, so those couple of reasons are enough to follow closely their odds in Group E.
Dortmund
Despite to be the greatest’s Bundesliga runner-up in Germany’s tournament, they have been placed in the last years in the UEFA classifying positions against Leverkusen or Leipzig. Borussia Dortmund is also known to be a “factory” in terms of export players to the main powerful clubs in Europe. We have as an example: Erling Haaland (Man City), Ousmane Dembélé (PSG) and Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona).
Juventus
La Vecchia Signora was the “dream team” in Italy in the past years. Their last 1st place was in the 2019/20 season. After that season, problems and the departure of CR7 and Paulo Dybala, they have been placed in 4th or 7th at the standings and their performance in Serie A or UEFA hadn’t been enough to be a winner team again. Despite their weaknesses, they’re favorites in Group G to advance.
Manchester City
Let’s be honest, only a miracle could lead the citizens or the Italian team to avoid the classification if Al Ain or Wydad AC lead the Group and advance. I don’t think so, because Man City are favored in the odds according to MyBookie and could also reach the Final game. Despite some problems during the Premier League season, the Guardiola’s team have all they need to do a great tournament, with Erling Haaland and Phil Foden as an examples.
Real Madrid
What about the Merengues? We agree with all the soccer specialist in the World that the Champions League was a total failure for them (also because they have lost the La Liga championship). But this time, they have a huge advantage in their Group H, so the next Round clasiffication won’t be a problem. If Madrid classify its very probable that the next matches will be against clubs from UEFA. Could Madrid advance, or some ghost will crash their dreams?
^Which are the Club World Cup Groups and Favorites to Advance?
Firstly, what defines the strongest Confederation? What does it mean? In soccer terms we have the answer for that to understand Club World Cup.
Our Soccer expert panel knows about the game, because they have experienced adrenaline when losing or winning several games in their young amateur-phase of soccer players a few years ago.
So, it isn’t the same to talk or write about soccer without being played a soccer matchup. That’s why we know which teams are the strongest in every confederation.
Moreover, we need to consider their performance trough history the local and international tournaments.

^Top Players to Keep an Eye on the Club World Cup
Let’s be honest, we were not the best players on the field, but we remember that there’s a lot of kids and younger people doing, making and playing the best soccer of all times.
Aditionally, we have a lot of examples of excellent players nowadays, some of them, are from South America or Europe, where soccer is an important key for their lives every week.
Each player from both Continents comes with huge differences concerning habilities, development and support, something that depends on the Confederation (CONMBEOL and UEFA).
In terms of money, there’s a huge difference between the UEFA and the rest of the Confederations, so that definitely could influence a player development.
