Paris Saint-Germain vs Atletico Madrid Preview and Team News
Paris Saint-Germain Team News
Arguably the biggest clash in the first round of the FIFA Club World Cup will see both Paris Saint-Germain and Atletico Madrid play away from home, which should level the playing field.
PSG, having won the quadruple in 2024-25, are in red-hot form and will be extremely difficult to beat. This season, under manager Luis Enrique, the team seemed like a different animal altogether – probably one of the sharpest sides in Europe at the moment.
Most recently, they blanked Inter Milan 5-0 to win the UEFA Champions League, and Enrique must be keen on adding another international title to his cap.

Usually deploying a 4-3-3 system, PSG like to pass the ball briskly and not hold onto it for too long. This allows them to shift their formation and push more attackers forward to the final third. With Ousmane Dembele operating up front, things get easier for the French side, as he’s renowned for his sharpshooting skills.
However, Dembele is a doubtful starter for this fixture due to a hip injury, as is Bradley Barcola, who has sustained a knee strain. Nonetheless, PSG’s attacking mindset is unlikely to change, and one can expect them to dominate the game from the very first minute.
Paris Saint-Germain predicted lineup vs Atletico Madrid (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Mendes, Pacho, Marquinhos, Hakimi; Ruiz, Vitinha, Neves; Doue, Lee, Kvaratskhelia.
Atletico Madrid Team News
Atletico Madrid, who weren’t even within earshot of winning La Liga in the 2024-25 season, will look to dislodge PSG’s claims of being the best team in Europe.
However, this is much easier said than done. Diego Simeone, who has been around the block in his 13 years as Atletico’s manager, knows how challenging it can be to retain possession against a squad that press high like PSG. Forwards Alvarez and Griezmann, both renowned for their quality on the ball, will have to shoulder a lot of responsibility in the upcoming encounter.

Nonetheless, the team’s 4-4-2 formation could work to their advantage in this game, allowing them to retain possession for longer periods. Simeone is known as a coach who encourages his players to build from the back, demanding a clinical approach in defense.
Naturally, Atletico will need to be sharp in their own half if they hope to push forward and threaten PSG’s goal. Having been unbeaten in four out of their last five matches, Simeone’s men may have enough confidence to take on their opponents in all their glory. Still, the absence of central defender Clement Lenglet is bound to play a big role in denting their morale.
Atletico Madrid predicted lineup vs PSG (4-4-2): Oblak; Llorente, Gimenez, Le Normand, Galan; Simeone, De Paul, Barrios, Lino; Griezmann, Alvarez.
Paris Saint-Germain vs Atletico Madrid Prediction
- Pick: Paris Saint-Germain to win
- Odds: -116 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 Atletico Madrid
PSG have the upper hand over Atletico. This match is likely to showcase two contrasting styles of play, with Enrique urging his side to attack early on and sending players forward in search of goals, while Simeone will focus on keeping his team solid defensively and maintaining control of possession.
Atletico have the flexibility to shift into a more attacking shape with four forwards when they’ve the ball in the opposition’s half – something Enrique will have to guard his wards against. Nonetheless, PSG is expected to pass all tests, given their current run of form and the attacking potential they possess in their ranks.
Paris Saint-Germain vs Atletico Madrid Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Paris Saint-Germain to score the first goal
- Odds: -152 (20Bet)
We expect PSG to be the first scorers in the upcoming meeting, as they have the tendency to get on the scoresheet early on. In their last outing, the Champions League final against Inter Milan, as well as three of their four previous matches, they were the ones to open the scoring.
This goes to show that Enrique’s men tend to start strong and build on the momentum they generate early on. We expect to see a similar pattern in this game. If Atletico want to prevent that from happening, they’ll need to keep their shape at the back and avoid letting stray balls find takers inside their box. But pulling that off will be no easy task.
