Seattle Sounders, one of the MLS teams participating in the Club World Cup, take on La Liga giants Atletico Madrid in a game from Group B of the competition. The Sounders are considered huge underdogs against Los Colchoneros, but this could be their great chance to surprise the Spaniards.
Atletico Madrid will try to redeem themselves after the humiliating 0-4 defeat against PSG just a few days ago. Diego Simeone’s team had a pretty bad game against Les Parisians, but now they have the chance to prove their worth.

Coached by Brian Schmetzer, Seattle Sounders kicked off their Club World Cup campaign with a defeat – 1-2 against Brazilian giants and current Copa Libertadores holders Botafogo.

What can Brian Schmetzer change against Atletico?

Atletico Madrid News & Analysis
Atletico Madrid had a terrible start of their Club World Cup campaign. Los Colchoneros faced the new Champions League winner PSG, but conceded four times for a 0-4 defeat. To be fair Atletico had some chances to score a goal, especially Alexander Sørloth had to do it, but they ended the match with a zero on the scoreboard.
Changes have to be made in Atletico Madrid’s line-up against Seattle. The obvious choice here is Koke. The veteran midfielder – also a captain of the team – could bring some organisation in the middle of the pitch for Atletico. Meanwhile Conor Gallagher is also a midfielder who could improve the dynamics in Atletico’s midfield.
Julian Alvarez remains the key player in Atletico’s team. The Argentine star scored against PSG, but his goal was disallowed because of an offside. He’s the heart of this current Atletico team.
