Bayern Munich and Tigres will fight for the FIFA World Club Cup title on Thursday evening. The European champions are string favorites, while the CONCACAF title defenders will search for a surprise.
Bayern Munich vs Tigres Match Preview & Team News
Bayern is on an excellent run, as they booked six wins in a row. The Bundesliga side holds the top spot in the domestic championship and is a major favorite for the title. Hans Flickโs team is seven points clear from RB Leipzig, and they look pretty confident. Joshua Kimmich and the lads conceded only twice in the last six games, and Bayern is very hard to crack. On the other hand, Robert Lewandowski and the lads are clinical in front of the oppositionsโ net. Bayern Munich eliminated the African champions Al Ahly in the semi-finals with a 2:0 win. They are just one step away from lifting another trophy this season.
Tigres had a tougher path through the competition, as they started from the quarter-finals. The Mexican side was better than Ulsan Hyundai on its first step, while they eliminated Palmeiras in the semis. The experienced striker Andre-Pierre Gignac will be a major threat for the opposition, as he scored all three goals for his team. Ricardo Ferrettiโs team just started the MX League Clausura, and Tigres sit in eighth place. The CONCACAF champions have never reached the finals so far, and Tigres might be the first team from North and Central America to win the FIFA Club World Cup. However, a very tough challenge is in front of them.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
Although European sides are always considered favorites, final matches have usually been pretty tight. However, Bayern has been pretty dominant in the past two seasons, and they should meet the expectations. Since the odds for Bayernโs win are pretty slim, we believe they can celebrate by at least a two-goal margin.

Tigres wonโt give up, and they are capable of scoring against any opponent. Therefore, we donโt expect the nets to remain intact.
