For Atletico, goalkeeper Jan Oblak has recovered. However, the Spanish team has many key players who have just returned from the FIFA Day series, causing coach Diego Simeone to consider their fitness. However, the duo Griezmann - Julian Alvarez will still be the hope in attack.

Latest football commentary PSG vs Atletico Madrid

The match between PSG and Atletico Madrid at 02:00 on June 16 in Group B of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup is expected to be extremely exciting and tense, as both teams are top candidates for a place in the knockout round. This is the first time PSG and Atletico have participated in a Club World Cup, and they both bring strong squads and a desire to assert their position as Europe's elite representatives.

PSG are in great form with a series of 5 consecutive wins, the most impressive of which was the 5-0 victory over Inter Milan in the Champions League final - a result that showed the destructive power of coach Luis Enrique and his team. The French capital team ended the season with a convincing domestic double, along with the European championship. That created excitement and great confidence before entering the tournament in the US.

However, their opponents – Atletico Madrid – were not easy to deal with. Coach Diego Simeone's team defeated PSG 2-1 in Paris in the group stage of this season's Champions League, in a match where they showed their usual steely determination and tenacity. Despite being outclassed (having 22 shots on goal), Atletico still knew how to punish their opponents' mistakes with the decisive goal in injury time from Angel Correa. That victory was a warning that Atletico is always ready to make it difficult for any "big guys", especially in top matches.

However, entering the Club World Cup, the two teams' performances were somewhat opposite. PSG showed absolute stability, while Atletico only won 3 of their last 5 matches. They finished the La Liga season in 3rd place and did not leave much of an impression in the cup competitions. In addition, Atletico was at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength as many key players had just returned from the national team training session, while PSG had more time to rest and prepare.

Tactically, PSG has an explosive attack with young, hungry players like Kvaratskhelia, Ramos and Doue. Meanwhile, Atletico remains loyal to a disciplined style of play, focusing on controlling the game and counter-attacking quickly. This match will be a big challenge for both sides, where PSG needs to break down the solid defensive wall of the Spanish representative, while Atletico will have to minimize the pressure from the opponent.

With what they have shown in the last season, PSG is slightly better in terms of form and squad depth. However, Atletico's pragmatism and experience make the match unpredictable. A draw with goals is predicted to be a reasonable scenario for this fiery match.
