The FIFA Club World Cup
Besides winning the tournament qualifying for the tournament itself is a very difficult task. This is because in order to qualify, a team needs to win against all other opponents in their own confederations. As such, only seven teams get to participate in the FIFA Club World Cup each year.
These seven teams represent the six winners of each confederation plus one team from the host country. Given below are the six continental confederations under FIFA:
- AFC (Asian)
- UEFA (Europe)
- CAF (Africa)
- CONCACAF (North & Central America and the Caribbean)
- OFC (Oceania)
- CONMEBOL (South America)
However, there are currently talks of a new format, which will see the numbers dramatically increase by 2025.
The 2022 FIFA Club World Cup will be the 19th edition ever since its inception in 2000. The tournament was not held during the years 2001 to 2004. Following its return in 2005, it has been held each year without interruption.
Real Madrid are currently the club with the most wins having won 4 titles. The Los Blancos are the favourites to win the title ahead of the tournament and will be looking to snatch a 5th title.
