While following today’s matches fans in Charlotte can look forward to an exciting round-of-16 clash between FC Internazionale Milano and Fluminense FC at Bank of America Stadium on Monday, 30 June 2025 (kick-off 15:00 ET) and Atlanta gears up to welcome the much-anticipated showdown between Borussia Dortmund and CF Monterrey on 1 July at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium (kick-off 21:00 ET), two more exciting duels will be decided on 26 June, with every piece of the action live on DAZN in the United States and around the world.

All eyes will initially turn to Group G, as European juggernauts Juventus FC and Manchester City clash at Orlando’s Camping World Stadium (kick-off 15:00 ET). The winner will top the group, while a draw would see the Italian outfit claim supremacy thanks to their greater number of goals scored, thus securing a slot in the round-of-16 meeting at the same venue on Monday, 30 June (kick-off 21:00 ET). At the same time as that all-European affair, Wydad AC and Al Ain FC will face off at Audi Field in Washington, D.C., with both sides looking to register their first points at the global showpiece tournament.

In Group H, Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field will host the eagerly awaited encounter between FC Salzburg and Real Madrid C. F. (kick-off 21:00 ET), where the winner will book their spot in the round-of-16 contest to be played at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium on Tuesday, 1 July (kick-off 15:00 ET). Meanwhile, Al Hilal will be taking on already-eliminated CF Pachuca at Nashville’s GEODIS Park (kick-off 21:00 ET) knowing that only a victory will give them any chance of progressing to the round of 16, depending on the result in Philadelphia.

Fans are encouraged to buy their tickets for the round-of-16 matches in Orlando and Miami before the fixtures are confirmed and demand from the clubs’ supporters increases.
