Paris Saint-Germain take on Seattle Sounders in the FIFA Club World Cup, with a win guaranteeing their spot in the knockout rounds.
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) take on Seattle Sounders in the FIFA Club World Cup tonight, with a win guaranteeing their spot in the knockout rounds.
After a shocking 1-0 loss to Botafogo in their previous match, Luis Enrique’s side needs a victory to progress. Seattle Sounders, who have lost both their opening fixtures, will be looking to cause an upset.
PSG’s predicted lineup features Gianluigi Donnarumma in goal, Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, or Willian Pacho, and Nuno Mendes in defense, Joao Neves, Vitinha, and Fabian Ruiz in midfield, and Desire Doué, Bradley Barcola, or Goncalo Ramos, and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in attack.
Ousmane Dembele’s participation is uncertain due to a thigh injury. If Dembele is unavailable, Bradley Barcola is likely to start. Nuno Mendes, Marquinhos, João Neves, and Fabian Ruiz are expected to return to the starting lineup after being benched in the loss to Botafogo.
Given PSG’s strong form and Seattle’s struggles, PSG is expected to dominate. PSG desperately needs a win if they want to make it out of the group stage.
