There is a new favorite in the bookmaker betting odds for the Club World Cup. After the first games, PSG, the Champions League winner, has taken the lead in the odds.
This comes as no surprise after their 4-0 win against Atlético Madrid. However, Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Bayern Munich are not far behind. Even Borussia Dortmund is lurking in the shadows…
Betting odds update: Opening win makes PSG the Club World Cup favorite
Before the tournament began, Real Madrid was considered the club World Cup favorite. Manchester City was the closest challenger, followed by FC Bayern and Paris Saint-Germain.
After the first few days of the summer tournament in the US, the bookmakers’ betting odds have already been turned upside down. NEO.bet isn’t the only one with a new favorite.
After a 4-0 win in their opening top match against Atlético Madrid, PSG is now the bookmakers’ new number one favorite to win the Club World Cup.
The impressive performance in Pasadena picked up exactly where the team left off a few weeks ago in the Champions League final (5-0 against Inter). So after just one game, they are now the favorites to win the Club World Cup.
The bookmakers’ betting odds update also makes sense in that the same arguments still speak in favor of PSG’s success.
Under coach Luis Enrique, the team is tactically clever, extremely flexible in attack, has a lot of individual class and can also bring top quality off the bench.
- PSG Club World Cup victory probability: 25%

Club World Cup favorites FC Bayern? Munich odds drop after 10-0 demonstration
While PSG put a top European club in its place, FC Bayern also impressed. However, there was little resistance in the 10-0 win over Auckland City.
The amateur footballers from New Zealand fought hard, but were ultimately several classes weaker. FC Bayern was already among the top four Club World Cup favorites going into the tournament.
Nothing has fundamentally changed in this regard. However, the odds on the Club World Cup winner have fallen slightly again and now stand at 7.00.
Before the opening game, the betting odds for FCB were still around 8.00. Despite the resounding victory, there have been significant changes, which is understandable given the strength of the opponent.
In the upcoming matches against Boca and Benfica, who drew 2-2 in their opening game, it will be important to confirm their performance. Should there be two more wins in preliminary round Group C, the odds are likely to change again in a positive direction.
- FC Bayern Club World Cup victory probability: 14%
Real and City still waiting – remain closest challengers in Club World Cup predictions
While PSG and Bayern have already successfully completed their opening games, the other two top favorites for the 2025 Club World Cup are still waiting for their first appearance.
Real Madrid was the bookmakers’ narrow favorite ahead of Manchester City before the tournament. Both clubs remain in the top three, but have each dropped one place.
Real Madrid’s odds of winning have fallen to 5.60, while those of the English side are now 5.90. Here, too, it will be very exciting to see how the first games against Al-Hilal and Wydad AC bring movement to the markets.
After all, these are the two teams with the highest total market value. The royals from Spain’s capital have a squad market value of €1.33 billion.
Not far behind is Manchester City with a total market value of €1.31 billion. According to the Club World Cup schedule, both teams will play for the first time on Wednesday, June 18, at 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. respectively.
- Real Madrid Club World Cup victory probability: 18%
- Man City Club World Cup victory probability: 17%
