Atlético Madrid to win

• Atlético Madrid are perennial contenders in these kinds of knockout tournaments. Even though Botafogo pulled off a surprise 1-0 win against PSG recently, they will find Atlético a different proposition. Simeone’s men have kept things tight at the back and controlled matches against similarly tough opposition all season. Expect them to impose themselves early and take the win.

Over 1.5 Atlético Madrid goals

• Atlético have been prolific in front of goal, scoring two or more goals in six of their last eight competitive matches. Even in a neutral setting, their front line will look to put the game to bed, especially after seeing Botafogo upset PSG. They will not want to take any risks, so over 1.5 Atlético goals looks very likely.

Over 3.5 match cards

• This tournament has been feisty. The last five Club World Cup fixtures have averaged over 4.5 cards per game. Both Atlético and Botafogo play aggressive, direct styles that often draw fouls and cautions. Expect the referee to be busy again tonight.

Julián Álvarez 1+ shots on target

• The Atlético forward was a real livewire last time out against Seattle, firing off four attempts and even clipping the crossbar. That sort of threat is exactly what you would expect from a player who scored 24 goals in 40 starts across La Liga and the Champions League last season. Given the form he is in and his ability to find space, one shot on target feels like a very safe addition here.

PSG to win to nil

• Seattle Sounders have struggled against top class opposition so far, and PSG will be determined to make a statement after that 1-0 defeat to Botafogo. Luis Enrique will want a controlled, professional performance with a clean sheet, especially against a Sounders side that has only managed one goal in their last three matches. PSG’s defence looks resolute, and they will keep Seattle at bay.

Total Bet Builder odds: 9/2

This five leg bet builder taps into form, motivation and key match trends across the two fixtures. Atlético will want to avoid the upset that PSG suffered against Botafogo, while PSG will be fired up after their own defeat and will not slip up again against Seattle. Combine that with discipline and a couple of player props, and you have a balanced 9/2 shot.
