The Italian side top Group G with six points after two matches, three clear of Manchester City, who play UAE's Al Ain later on Sunday. Juve will reach the knockouts if Al Ain fail to beat the Premier League club, who can also book their round-of-16 berth with victory. Both Al Ain and Wydad remain without points and on the brink of elimination. Juventus made the breakthrough in the sixth minute with a well-worked team move that ended with Wydad defender Abdelmounaim Boutouil scoring an own goal. Needing at least a draw to keep alive any realistic hope of reaching the last 16 after a 2-0 loss to Manchester City in their opener, Wydad pressed high and unsettled Juventus.
