Man City vs Fluminense odds
Man City are one game away from history. A victory here would see the Citizens become the first ever English side to hold the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup. It would also be a record breaking win for Pep Guardiola, as he would overtake Carlo Ancelotti as the most successful manager in the competition’s history to make it four wins from four finals.They made light work of Urawa Red Diamonds in the semi-final, with goals from Mateo Kovacic and Bernardo Silva as well as a Marius Hoibraten own goal saw them cruise into the final.
Standing in their way are Fluminense, who won the Copa Libertadores for the first time in their history this year after an extra-time win over Boca Juniors. The Brazilian side are competing in their first ever Club World Cup final and could become the first South American side to win the trophy since Corinthians way back in 2012. They set up this tie with a 2-0 victory over Al Ahly after second half goals from Jhon Arias and sub John Kennedy.

Pep Guardiola has a 100% record in FIFA Club World Cup finals, winning each of his last three with Barcelona and Bayern and is looking to become the first manager in history to win this competition four times. His side have been struggling for form, but should come out on top here, but look likely to concede having kept just one clean sheet in their last nine games across all competitions.
