In the quarter-final, they will be met by the winners of the CONCACAF Champions League, the CAF Champions League, and the AFC Champions League. The two winners of this round will go on to face the winner of the Copa Libertadores and the winner of the UEFA Champions League in the semi-final<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n \n \n

The winners of the semi-final round will then meet in the final<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n To put it simply, the winner of the OFC Champions League, for instance, would need to win four games to win this tournament, while the winner of the UEFA Champions League would only need to win two. However, this is based on the idea that the latter had a much more difficult road to qualify.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n Here\u2019s a table to make things simpler for you:<\/p>\n\n

The tournament was supposed to be expanded to include 24 teams and take place in China.<\/p>\n\n\n However, because of the fixture congestion that was caused by Tokyo Olympics taking place one year later than planned, FIFA announced that they would be postponing the expanded Club World Cup to possibly 2023.<\/p>\n\n
\n Under its normal tournament structure, the 2021 was then set to be hosted in Japan in late 2021, but these plans were also scrapped. In the end, FIFA announced that the 2021 Club World Cup would be held in the United Arab Emirates in February 2022.<\/p>\n\n

\n
The expansion of the Club World Cup has still not materialised. The 2022 edition will be held in February 2023 and very little is known about next year's competition. There is speculation that the expansion will be implemented in 2025.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
\n The 2022 FIFA Club World Cup will be held in Morocco from 1 to 11 February 2023<\/strong>. Reigning champions Chelsea won't be taking part, as they failed to defend their Champions League title.<\/p>\n\n\n FIFA Club World Cup Betting Odds 2022\n <\/h3>\n \n\n \n Outright betting odds<\/strong> at the time of writing are as follows.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n In the entire history of the competition – since 2000 – only countries from Europe or South America have been crowned champions. Moreover, 14 of the 18 winners have been European<\/strong>, and only five teams from outside UEFA and CONMEBOL have even made it to the final.<\/p>\n\n\n That's likely to be the case again this year, with four-time Club World Cup winners Real Madrid back for the first time since 2018. Here's an overview of teams and their chances in the tournament.<\/p>\n\n
\n
\n
\n
Real Madrid<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
\n Real Madrid is an absolute powerhouse when it comes to international competitions. Los Blancos<\/em> are the most successful team in Europe with 14 UEFA Cup & Champions League crowns<\/strong>. They\u2019ve also won the most Club World Cups (four in total)<\/strong> \u2013 all in the space of five years.We\u2019re predicting Real Madrid to go the distance for a 5th time \u2013 even with fixtures occurring alongside the regular league season.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
Flamengo<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
\n The champions of what's considered to be the second-best continental competition, Flamengo will be competing in their second Club World Cup<\/strong>. 2019 ended in heartbreak for the Scarlet-Blacks, as they lost 1-0 in extra time to Liverpool.Flamengo are also favourites to make it to the final, and they'll be hoping to go one better this year. However – against possibly the greatest \u2018big game\u2019 team ever – it seems unlikely that they'll win the competition.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
