Newly revamped version of the competition brings together some of the biggest clubs in the world to compete in the USA

The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup is set to be a thrilling competition, bringing together some of the world's biggest football clubs to battle it out in the summer heat of huge stadiums with thousands cheering them on. Fans everywhere are keen to find a trusted sports betting site to make this already captivating tournament even more interesting.

Hosted by the USA, this global event will feature teams from all federations. However, it's no surprise that Europe's teams are leading as favourites going in. The disparity in resources between Europe and the other continents should be on stark display at this tournament.

Here are the five favourites to take home the prize.

Paris Saint-Germain (9/2 favourites)

Despite their initial struggles in the group stage, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) made their way to the final of the UEFA Champions League, where they hammered Inter Milan and became European champions for the first time.

With players like Ousmane Dembele, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Vitinha playing beautiful football under Luis Enrique’s leadership, PSG could potentially go from European champions to world champions.

Real Madrid (4/1)

Real Madrid may not have retained their European crown this season, but they remain formidable contenders due to their dominance over European football in the last decade.

Despite not being at their best this season, with players like Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr on board, they can strike fear into any opponent. As record winners of this competition, with five Club World Cup titles so far - even if Carlo Ancelotti might not be present - Los Blancos are definitely ones to watch.

Manchester City (5/1)

Manchester City have had a disappointing season but remain hopeful that they can turn a corner this summer and head into next season in the right way. Their chairman recently described this competition as the start of the 2025-26 season, rather than the end of the 2024-25 season, emphasising how seriously the club are taking it.

Despite turbulent form throughout this most recent campaign, under Pep Guardiola's management, they still have a significant chance of doing something in the USA. As defending Club World Cup champions, and with a raft of exciting new arrivals, Man City cannot be discounted.

Bayern Munich (7/1)

Bayern Munich may have missed out on a Champions League final on home soil, but reclaiming their Bundesliga crown from Bayer Leverkusen is a significant achievement for Vincent Kompany and his men.

For Harry Kane, this marks his first major trophy win, made even more special by his outstanding form. If opponents can't contain the England striker, Bayern could potentially add another piece of silverware to their collection during their U.S. tour this summer.

Chelsea (11/1)

Chelsea may be a surprising name to find high up in the odds, but they pose a significant threat in the USA. They will be full of confidence after securing a Champions League spot and winning the UEFA Conference League.

Chelsea have the potential to take on any team and do well on their day if players like Cole Palmer and Noni Madueke perform well. Despite being one-time winners of the Club World Cup, they are also remembered as being the only European team in 17 editions to lose a final, defeated by Corinthians in 2012.

The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup promises to be an exciting tournament with these top teams battling it out for glory on American soil.

With such strong contenders from Europe leading as favourites, football fans and betting enthusiasts alike can look forward to thrilling matches filled with world-class talent.
