<h1>FIFA Club World Cup Predictions: The Players to Watch</h1> <p>The Champions League, Copa Libertadores, European Championship, Copa America, the World Cup… the best players have had a habit of coming up with the goods on football’s biggest stages.</p> <p>FIFA will be hoping that their revamped Club World Cup will be considered amongst that pantheon of tournaments in time, so which stars are set to shine in the United States this June and July?</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>FIFA Club World Cup: Best Players</h2> <p>As the favourites to win the tournament as per the <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/soccer/fifa-club-world-cup/fifa-club-world-cup/fifa-club-world-cup-2025-outrights-8759623">FIFA Club World Cup betting odds</a>, all eyes will be on Real Madrid’s thrilling front three.</p> <p><strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong>, <strong>Vinicius Jr</strong> and <strong>Rodrygo</strong> are as strong as an attacking trio as you’ll see in this competition, but they come into it on the back of a disappointing season in which they lost out on the La Liga title and under-achieved in the Champions League.</p> <p>When talk turns to Manchester City, most think about the amazing goalscoring feats of Erling Haaland. But City have been bereft this term without midfield general <strong>Rodri</strong>, and his return at the Club World Cup is hugely significant.</p> <p>The Spaniard is a Ballon d’Or winner – rare for a defence-minded player – a European champion with Spain and has won all of the major competitions in Europe with City.</p> <p>PSG were the breakout side of 2024/25 when winning the Champions League, with a host of players catching the eye. The devastating attacking combinations of <strong>Desire Doue</strong>, <strong>Ousmane Dembele</strong>, <strong>Bradley Barcola </strong>and <strong>Khvicha Kvaratskhelia </strong>will be fun to watch.</p> <p>Where would a major tournament be without <strong>Lionel Messi</strong>? His Inter Miami side qualified for the Club World Cup via their successes in Major League Soccer, although they might be outclassed on home soil against higher-grade opposition.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>FIFA Club World Cup: Top Goalscorer Betting Odds</h2> <p>Sportsbet are offering <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/soccer/fifa-club-world-cup/fifa-club-world-cup/fifa-club-world-cup-2025-outrights-8759623">FIFA Club World Cup top goalscorer betting odds</a> in support of the tournament.</p> <p><strong>Mbappe </strong>will be the pre tournament favourite, with his reputation for scoring big goals (remember his awesome hat-trick in the 2022 World Cup final?) assured.</p> <p>There’s a sense that Man City can go far in this tournament, which in itself will presumably mean goals for the prolific <strong>Haaland</strong>.</p> <p>Another interesting proposition among the favourites is <strong>Harry Kane</strong>, who notched 11 Champions League goals this term and has won the Golden Boot at both the World Cup and European Championship.</p> <p>While the spotlight naturally falls on global stars like Mbappe, Kane and Haaland, there’s value in keeping an eye on emerging stars.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Serhou Guirassy </strong>is one such name worth considering. The Dortmund striker was one of Europe’s most prolific forwards last season, and if he carries that form into the tournament, he could surprise a few. With a favourable group stage draw, there’s every chance he starts strong - and in a short tournament, that can make all the difference.</p>
