Preview: Seattle Sounders vs Atletico
The club from Oregon won the CONCACAF Champions League in 2022. And the previous season brought quite decent results: 4th place in the West in the regional championship and reaching the conference finals as part of the play-offs. Now the footballers quickly, in the struggle with the second opponent, Cruz Azul, finished the fight in the CONCACAF Champions Cup. And they are performing well, but inconsistently, in the MLS. The team lost both previous matches there.
The grandee from Madrid finished La Liga in 4th place a year ago (even below Girona). This, it seems, prompted the renewal of the squad with large expenditures on newcomers. Still, the club only held out in the race with Real and Barcelona until spring, and then fell behind. It also lost to them in other tournaments: the failure in the game with the neighbour happened in the Champions League and a misfire on penalties was in the battle against the Catalans in the cup semi-final. As a result, the team played out the season automatically, realizing that it would definitely be third.
It was interesting to see if Diego Simeone would “wake up” his footballers in this format. To tell the truth, practically nothing worked out in the confrontation with PSG – the team lost with a 0-4 score. Performing at the Club World Cup, the Americans started with Botafogo. And, although they tried to make a comeback, the match was lost with a 1-2 score.

At least such a start should be a “kick” for the representatives of Spain. They should beat such an opponent with “a -1.5 goal handicap” (odd: 1.88).
