The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup continues with fireworks as Paris Saint-Germain takes on fellow European heavyweights Atletico Madrid in a blockbuster Group B clash this Sunday at the iconic Rose Bowl, California.
It’s the first-ever all-European encounter in Club World Cup history — and while PSG's flair and firepower stand out, Diego Simeone’s tactical warriors bring grit, experience, and a thirst to upset the odds.
🔵 PSG Look to Dominate After UCL Dream Season | Home Win = 1.95💵
PSG arrive as one of the tournament favourites, fresh off a historic treble-winning campaign. Luis Enrique’s side lit up Europe last season, storming to the Ligue 1 title, Coupe de France, and a record-breaking 5-0 UEFA Champions League final victory over Inter Milan.
While this is their Club World Cup debut, they were already qualified for the defunct 2024 version after their UCL triumph. Now, they must conquer a marathon 7-match format to lift the new global trophy.
Les Parisiens will bank on their electric attack, which racked up 152 goals last season, though only 3 clean sheets in their last 12 matches will give Enrique something to address defensively.
🔴⚪ Atletico Madrid Return to the Big Stage Hungry | Away Win = 4.09💵
It’s also Atletico’s Club World Cup debut, though they famously won the Intercontinental Cup in 1974. Simeone’s men may not have lifted silverware last season, but they know how to grind out results against elite opponents, as PSG know all too well.
In their most recent meeting in last season’s UCL, Atleti stunned PSG with a last-gasp 93rd-minute winner at the Parc des Princes despite having only 4 shots and under 30% possession — classic Simeone style.
After a flat domestic finish, the Madrid giants roared late with six wins in their final nine matches and 19 goals in their last five wins. This is a side that should never be counted out.
🗝️ Key Players & Team News 📰:
• PSG: Ousmane Dembele remains a major doubt after pulling out of France’s Nations League squad. Bradley Barcola should be fit, while Desire Doue is undroppable after his UCL final heroics.
• Atletico Madrid: Jan Oblak is fit and back in camp after international duty. Nahuel Molina, Rodrigo De Paul, and Julian Alvarez all featured heavily for Argentina but are expected to start. Sorloth, despite his La Liga hat trick, may remain a super sub.
🔢 Match Stats & Betting Odds | Draw = 3.96 💵
• PSG averaged 3+ goals per game last season and won all three domestic trophies. | Specials Market: Double Chance & Over 2.5 (Home/Draw & Over 2.5) = 2.21
• Atletico upset PSG in the Champions League despite being heavily outplayed. They're unbeaten in five of their last six games in all comps. | Specials Market: O/U & GG/NG (Over 2.5 & Yes) = 2.00
📊Team Form & Predicted Line-ups🧑🤝🧑:
📈 PSG (L W W W W W):
Possible XI: Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Nuno Mendes; Joao Neves, Vitinha, Fabian Ruiz; Doue, Goncalo Ramos, Kvaratskhelia.
📈 Atletico Madrid (W D W L W W):
Possible XI: Oblak; Molina, Le Normand, Gimenez, Javi Galan; Simeone, De Paul, Koke, Gallagher; Griezmann, Alvarez.
This continental clash brings together the offensive brilliance of PSG and the defensive steel of Atletico. Expect high drama, calculated risks, and a tactical chess match in California.

The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup kicks off in style as Inter Miami take on African powerhouses Al Ahly in the opening Group A clash on Sunday night at the Hard Rock Stadium, Florida.
While Messi’s star power grabs headlines, Al Ahly’s rich history and proven consistency in global competitions make this a potential thriller with more than just points on the line.
🔴 Al Ahly Ready to Represent Africa's Best | Home Win= 3.49💵
Al Ahly, the most successful club in African football history, return to the Club World Cup for a record 10th time. Their 12 CAF Champions League titles only trail Real Madrid and Auckland City globally.
After finishing third four times in the last five editions, the Red Devils will be desperate to go one step further, even as they enter this clash with a new coach, Jose Riveiro, following the sacking of Marcel Koller in April.
Despite the managerial change, form is on their side. They’ve won six straight domestic matches and held Pachuca to a 1-1 draw in a recent friendly before narrowly losing on penalties.
⚪️ Inter Miami Seek Home Glory as Messi Roars Back | Away Win = 2.08💵
Inter Miami's rapid rise continues as they make their Club World Cup debut, led by football royalty Lionel Messi, who knows this competition all too well after winning it thrice with Barcelona.
Though their form has been patchy—just four wins in their last 12—the Herons come into the match fresh from back-to-back 4-2 and 5-1 victories over Montreal and Columbus Crew, respectively.
Mascherano’s men are banking on their star-studded spine, with eight-time Ballon d’Or winner Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba, and young talents like Benjamin Cremaschi, to set the tone on home soil.
Owned by David Beckham, the Herons earned their spot via the 2024 MLS Supporters’ Shield to determine a host nation club.
🗝️ Key Players & Team News 📰:
• Al Ahly: Emam Ashour recovered from a thigh scare and starts alongside veterans Taher Mohamed, Achraf Bencharki, and prolific Wessam Abou Ali. New boss Riveiro may tinker, but faith in his experienced core runs deep.
• Inter Miami: Jordi Alba and Gonzalo Luján are doubts after muscle niggles; Oscar Ustari and Tomás Avilés return to contention. Mascherano’s Herons likely stick with 4-4-2 to maximise Messi-Suárez partnership.
🔢 Match Stats & Betting Odds 💵| Draw = 3.82
• Al Ahly are unbeaten in 90 minutes in all their last 6 games in all competitions, while this is their 10th such appearance in the competition. | Specials Market: O/U & GG/NG (Over 2.5 7 Yes) = 2.40
• Inter Miami boast 9 goals in their last two games, winning by at least 2 goals or more (5-1 & 4-2). However, it is their first-ever FIFA Club World Cup cap. | Goals Market: Away O/U (Away Over 1.5) = 1.88
📊Team Form & Predicted Line-ups🧑🤝🧑:
📈Al Ahly (W W W W W L):
Possible XI: El Shenawy; Hany, Rabia, Ibrahim, Debes; El Solia, Ashour, Ateya; Mohamed, Trezeguet, Abou Ali.
📈Inter Miami (L D L D W W):
Possible XI: Ustari; Weigandt, Falcón, Luján, Allen; Allende, Cremaschi, Busquets, Segovia; Messi, Suárez.
This heavyweight opener blends Al Ahly’s continental mastery with Miami’s Hollywood pedigree. Expect tactical jostling, moments of individual brilliance, and a fevered Florida crowd.
