On Sunday evening, there's more FIFA Club World Cup action coming our way. This time, we're interested in what is going on at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, where Man City of England and Al Ain of the United Arab Emirates will lock horns. The Citizens go in search of a second straight win at this tournament following their first-round success against Moroccan outfit Wydad, with Pep Guardiola's men winning by two goals to zero in Philadelphia.
Sure, it was comfortable for City last time out, but they gave the impression that after a long domestic season, they're not going to go all out duirng the early stages of this competition, so it wasn't exactly surprising that they didn't win by a bigger margin. For Al Ain, it was a hugely disappointing night against Italian giants Juventus, whom they lost by five goals to zero against, though in truth, they were a little unlucky to lose by such a sizable margin. If the men from the UAE can dig a little deeper here, they could easily get more competitive.

Our Manchester City vs Al Ain FC Prediction
Ahead of Man City's first game at the FIFA Club World Cup, I went down the low-scoring route, betting 'Under 3.5 Goals' and it paid off. I'm going down the same route here, and not because it paid off first time out, but because yet again, the early market looks to be overestimating the chances of a really high-scoring game. Guardiola's men really could do without these assignments after a long and frustrating season, and they likely won't be at full strength either, so don't be too surprised if they don't shift fully through the gears against a team that will be fully focused on avoiding an embarrassing defeat. Our Man City vs Al Ain Pick: Under 3.5 Goals.
