Seattle Sounders FC wrap up their Group B campaign at the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup on Monday afternoon, welcoming French juggernaut Paris Saint-Germain to Lumen Field.
The MLS outfit came close to pulling off a surprise in their opener against Brazilian champs Botafogo, but ultimately fell 2-1 despite a late spark from Cristian Roldan. Their next outing saw a valiant effort against Atlético Madrid, with Albert Rusnák netting in the second half of a 3-1 defeat.
As for PSG, the math is simple—win and march on, possibly topping the group. Even a draw might be enough to book their ticket to the knockout rounds. But a loss to Seattle could throw a spanner in the works.
Luis Enrique’s men arrive in Seattle licking their wounds after a frustrating 1-0 loss to Botafogo, where they hogged the ball with 75% possession and fired off 16 shots—but had nothing to show for it.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.

Seattle Sounders vs. PSG predicted lineups, team news
Seattle’s tough outing against Atlético Madrid came with more than just scoreboard woes—Kalani Kossa-Rienzi limped off with a knock late in the game, opening the door for Alex Roldan to potentially slot back into the starting XI for the showdown with PSG.
Beyond that, the hosts’ injury list remains relatively short, with long-term absentee Paul Arriola still recovering from an ACL tear.
However, there’s room to tinker up front, and former Rangers winger Ryan Kent could be called upon to inject some flair. He’s been a key playmaker this season, sitting tied for the team lead with three assists in the 2025 MLS campaign.
Seattle Sounders predicted XI (4-2-3-1, right to left): Frei (GK) — A. Roldan, Bell, Kim, Nouhou — Vargas, C. Roldan — De la Vega, Rusnak, Kent — Ferreira.
Injured: Kalani Kossa-Rienzi, Paul Arriola.
Suspended: None
PSG’s struggles in front of goal against Botafogo may have had a familiar missing piece—Ousmane Dembele. The Ballon d’Or hopeful remains sidelined with a nagging thigh injury, and the club is likely playing it safe, hoping he’ll be fit for the business end of the tournament if they seal a spot in the knockouts.
Despite Dembele’s absence, Luis Enrique still has plenty of firepower at his disposal. With Atlético breathing down PSG’s neck in the Group B standings, the Spaniard is expected to roll the dice and field a heavyweight lineup to avoid any slip-ups.
Key names like Nuno Mendes, Marquinhos, Joao Neves, and Fabian Ruiz are all poised to return to the starting mix, while Bradley Barcola could get the nod as a fresh central spark to lead the line in what’s shaping up to be a must-win clash.
PSG predicted XI (4-3-3, right to left): Donnarumma (GK) — Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes — Ruiz, Vitinha, Neves — Lee, Barcola, Kvaratskhelia.
Injured: Ousmane Dembele.
Suspended: None
