For the first time in its history, the FIFA Club World Cup will feature 32 teams in a month-long tournament. It’s a major shift from the seven-team format used in the past, as the competition enters a bold new era—complete with a group stage of eight groups of four, followed by a knockout round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and final.
In 2025, the revamped FIFA Club World Cup will run from June 14 to July 13 and take place in the United States. Here at interwetten, you’ll be able to bet on every kick and tackle from the Land of the Free with our FIFA Club World Cup betting markets covering everything from outright winner and top goalscorer to individual match odds.
Our Journey with the FIFA Club World Cup Through the Years
We're ready for every twist and turn of the FIFA Club World Cup — as we have been since it kicked off in 2000. In fact, we opened our doors 10 years earlier, going onto become one of the pioneers of online sports betting and the iGaming industry.
We were one of the first online sportsbooks to offer outright betting on Corinthians winning the inaugural FIFA Club World Cup in Brazil. We were also unique in providing odds on Franck Ribéry to win the Golden Ball at the 2013 showpiece in Morocco; then we had Manchester City priced as favourites to lift the final edition of the tournament’s old format in 2023 in Saudi Arabia.
So, we’ve witnessed the highs, lows, drama and glory that make the FIFA Club World Cup one of a kind. That means we can design our betting options with real insight into how the tournament unfolds, giving you the chance to back any hunch you might have.
In this betting guide, we’ll walk you through which clubs and countries have dominated this competition and explain how to read FIFA Club World Cup odds. We'll highlight the most popular markets to bet on, and show you how to claim our new customer offer at interwetten.
The Most Successful Clubs and Countries in FIFA Club World Cup History
While the FIFA Club World Cup has often been seen as a December distraction from domestic duties, clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona have always taken it seriously, and it shows.
As of 2025, Real Madrid have lifted the trophy five times, while their fierce rivals Barcelona have won it on three occasions. Unsurprisingly, that puts Spain at the top of the leaderboard with eight titles in total, clear of Brazil and England, who trail behind with four each.
The Favourites to Win the 2025 Club World Cup at interwetten
Despite an underwhelming campaign in both La Liga and the Champions League, Real Madrid head into the 2025 Club World Cup as the outright favourites. Perennial contenders on the global stage, Los Blancos will hope a fresh start under new manager Xabi Alonso breathes new life into their campaign, as he takes over from Carlo Ancelotti in time for the summer showdown in the United States. A new broom sweeps clean — or so Madridistas will hope.
Hot on their heels in the outright betting are Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). The French giants will arrive in America buoyed by their first-ever Champions League triumph — a stunning 5-0 demolition of Inter Milan in the final. While the silverware is stacking up under Luis Enrique, the big question is whether the Spaniard can keep the fire burning in his players or whether PSG risk falling victim to a post-glory hangover — the proverbial Lord Mayor’s Show.
Manchester City, the reigning champions, are priced as contenders too — but with their squad in transition and key players moving on, this might be a tournament too soon for the Cityzens, even under the demanding gaze of Pep Guardiola.
Bayern Munich will also be fancied, especially with Harry Kane finally getting his hands on silverware after a dominant Bundesliga title win. With the Englishman hungry for more and Bayern’s big-game pedigree, they’ll be a team to watch closely.
There are also growing murmurings around Chelsea, who lifted the UEFA Conference League and now dream of a sensational Club World Cup run. With the meticulous Enzo Maresca at the helm, the Blues might just be the dark horses — especially if more fancied opponents feel the strain of what has become the never-ending season.
FIFA Club World Cup betting odds at interwetten function much like those found in other football tournaments, such as Europa League betting or Champions League betting. In essence, lower odds indicate a higher chance of an outcome, while higher odds suggest it’s less likely.
For example, if Real Madrid are priced at 5.00 in the outright winner market, it signals that the Spanish giants are among the FIFA Club World Cup betting odds favourites. On the other hand, if Al-Hilal's odds are 51.00, it suggests the Saudi Arabian side are rank outsiders.
Along with implied probabilities, these odds also relate to potential payouts. For instance, a €10 bet on Real Madrid at 5.00 would return €50 if they win—that’s your original €10 stake plus €40 in winnings.
Meanwhile, the same €10 wager on Al-Hilal at 51.00 would return €510, which is your €10 stake plus €500 in winnings.
Of course, odds can change as upsets happen. We consistently update our odds as the tournament progresses and moves deeper into the knockout stages to reflect the current status quo.
FIFA Club World Cup Live Betting
At the same time as we keep our outright markets updated throughout the tournament to reflect the current state of play, we also adjust our odds dynamically during every live match at the FIFA Club World Cup.
This means you can place bets even after the referee has blown the whistle and the action is underway.
So, if a game looks too close to call before kick-off or if something significant happens early on — such as a red card — our live betting odds give you the chance to respond instantly with an up-to-date bet based on what’s unfolding on the pitch.

FIFA Club World Cup Betting Tips
Here at interwetten, we’ve been offering football betting odds since 1990, so we’ve seen just about everything the beautiful game can throw at us. If there’s one thing we know, it’s that upsets happen. In the end, shocks and surprises are part of what makes football the game we love, and the FIFA Club World Cup is no exception.
Keep this in mind when placing your bets and deciding on your stake.
While it’s wise to expect the unexpected in tournament football, there’s still no substitute for being well-informed before placing a bet, especially when it comes to the FIFA Club World Cup.
This competition is unique for several reasons. For one, it now takes place immediately after a gruelling domestic season, meaning both mental and physical fatigue can play a significant role — which, in turn, influences FIFA Club World Cup betting patterns.
Another crucial element is the timing of the transfer window. FIFA allows clubs to register new signings just before the tournament begins, which can disrupt or improve team chemistry. For instance, newly arrived players may need time to settle in, and that shift in team cohesion can significantly affect the overall performance of a club.
Alongside these unique factors specific to the Club World Cup, the age-old basics still apply — keep an eye on injuries, suspensions, and recent form heading into the tournament to help guide your selections.
In short, do your homework before you bet on the FIFA Club World Cup.
