La Gazzetta dello Sport has rated all the possible opponents for Inter and Juventus in the 2025 Club World Cup.

The 2025 Club World Cup draw will occur today in Miami, starting at 13:00 local time (19:00 CET).

Juventus and Inter are the Serie A representatives in the tournament, which will be held in the USA from June 15 to July 13 next year.

Both sides are in Pot 2, but Inter have a better position in the UEFA ranking, so contrary to Juventus, they won’t be paired with any European club from Pot 1.

On the other hand, Juventus will have another European club in their group: Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich or PSG.

Unsurprisingly, Thursday’s printed edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport notes that these four clubs will be the most challenging opponents the Bianconeri could face in the group phase.

The Old Lady may also get one of the best two teams from Pot 3: recent Copa Libertadores winner Botafogo or Argentinean giants Boca Juniors.

Inter won’t be paired with any of them, given that they’ll already get a South American opponent from Pot 1.

Below are the Gazzetta ratings for Inter and Juventus’ opponents at the 2025 Club World Cup from five to one star.
