Manchester City have a vital clash against Italian giants Juventus in their final Club World Cup group game, which fans in the UK can watch for free
Manchester City will need a victory over Juventus to progress into the knockout stages of the Club World Cup as group winners. After disappointing Premier League and Champions League campaigns, the US-based competition provides City with an opportunity to grasp some silverware.
Pep Guardiola’s side followed up their 2-0 victory over Wydad AC by destroying United Arab Emirates side Al Ain 6-0. However, despite winning both matches, scoring eight goals and conceding none, they are still only second in their group.
Juventus have their noses ahead of the Citizens as they have scored one more goal. City could find themselves facing Real Madrid in the last 16 depending on results.
Their crucial clash against Juventus will not be on UK TV, but fans will still be able to tune in to watch City in action. Mirror Football walks you through how to watch Erling Haaland and co.

What’s the Juventus vs Man City team news?
Rodri has appeared in both of City’s Club World Cup victories. However, Guardiola insisted he will not be playing a full half any time soon, to ensure he does not get injured again.
On the Ballon d’Or winner, Guardiola said: “Step-by-step. He cannot play more than 30 minutes. He still struggles a bit in the duels, still needs to be a little bit stronger, but it’s normal.”
New signing Rayan Ait-Nouri impressed on his first start for City in the victory over Al Ain and may be thrown into the starting XI again. However, Claudio Echeverri, who scored on his first full start for City against the UAE side, may not feature, as he was taken off at half-time after twisting his ankle.
