Seattle Sounders FC vs Atlético Madrid Preview and Team News

Seattle Sounders FC Team News

Seattle Sounders kicked off their second appearance in the Club World Cup with a close defeat against Brazilian Botafogo. Despite their efforts and a huge chance in the 94th minute, the Sounders eventually lost 2-1.

Based on the second-half performance, the Sounders were significantly better than their opponents. Playing on home soil is a big advantage, but they should work on converting their chances. Even though the xG was 2.18 for Seattle, they missed a lot of dangerous moments.

Cristian Roldan was probably the best player in the squad. However, he’ll need more assistance from his teammates, as the first half was below par for the MLS representatives.

Atlético Madrid Team News

Atletico left zero impression in their first match. Diego Simeone’s men were heavily outclassed by PSG and could not offer a counterplay, which eventually resulted in a humiliating 4-0 defeat.

It’s already become typical for Madrid to lack creativity in the attack. Now, the Spanish side may need to win both of their matches to avoid a potential upset and get eliminated from the tournament.

Clement Lenglet was sent off in the second half and will not be available. Jose Maria Gimenez is expected to start, while Reinildo Mandava is set to replace Javi Galan on the left flank of the defence.

Seattle Sounders FC vs Atlético Madrid Prediction 

• Pick: Atletico (-1.5) Handicap
• Odds: 1.74 (22Bet)
• Score prediction: Seattle Sounders FC 0-2 Atlético Madrid

Atletico Madrid need to bounce back immediately, as another failure will endanger their chances of reaching the playoffs. However, they’re now facing a much lower-ranked opponent, and the victory should not be a problem for Diego Simeone’s men.

In addition, the Seattle Sounders have struggled in the defence against Botafogo. Based on their first-half effort, Atletico will have a tangible initiative in the coming game.

We expect the advantage to be on Madrid’s side, and they will likely grab a convincing triumph in this encounter. Therefore, we would suggest picking the following option: Atletico to win with a (-1.5) handicap. 

Seattle Sounders FC vs Atlético Madrid Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Both Teams to Score – No
• Odds: 1.77 (22Bet)

Despite conceding four unanswered goals against PSG, we don’t think the Spanish giants will repeat the same mistakes. Moreover, they are facing opponents of a different class, and they shouldn’t have as many chances as they had against Botafogo.

Atletico Madrid are particularly effective against clubs that have limited attacking capabilities. They should thwart Seattle’s attacks and not give them any moments near their goal.

It is not a game where you would expect an exchange of goals, but rather one side to dominate. Thus, our second pick for this meeting would be both teams not to score.
