Seattle Sounders vs Atletico Madrid Recent Form
Seattle Sounders are will have to bounce back after a 2-1 loss to Botafogo in their Club World Cup opener, despite dominating possession (60%) and outshooting their opponents 19-5 in the second half. With home advantage at Lumen Field, the Sounders will look to leverage their attacking threat, led by Albert Rusnák, but their recent form (two wins, three losses in their last five) raises concerns about their ability to upset a European giant.
Atletico Madrid, meanwhile, are reeling from a 4-0 thrashing by PSG, where they managed only 26% possession and one shot on target. However, their strong La Liga campaign (33 wins, 11 draws, 11 losses in 55 matches) and potent attack (1.91 goals per game) suggest they can bounce back against a less formidable opponent. Diego Simeone’s side will be determined to secure a win to keep their knockout stage hopes alive.
