All odds are provided by our recommended football bookmakers and are subject to change.PSG vs Atletico Madrid predictionsOne of the standout fixtures on matchday one of the Club World Cup sees Paris Saint-Germain face Atletico Madrid on Sunday night.This is primetime viewing in Europe and it is the type of game that could win over some of the tournament’s doubters.Admittedly that depends on how seriously the two clubs take it. But as with other representatives from UEFA, the prize money alone will probably be sufficient to persuade PSG and Atletico to give the competition as good as they have got.PSG are still riding the crest of a wave following their Champions League success. Luis Enrique’s side obliterated Inter 5-0 in one of the most one-sided finals of all time on May 31.The Parisians did not just get the Champions League monkey off their back; they did so with a style and panache that will live long in the memory.Anyone who watched PSG in that competition since the turn of the year could hardly argue that they did not deserve to be crowned kings of the continent.PSG were not the same force before Christmas, though. In fact there was a time when it looked like they would be eliminated before the knockout phase.Luis Enrique’s team lost three of their first five games in Europe, including a 2-1 home defeat by Atletico Madrid in November. Plenty has changed since then, but Diego Simeone will doubtless reference that victory at the Parc des Princes in his pre-match team talk this weekend.Talking of Simeone, it is hard to imagine a team managed by the ferociously competitive Argentine taking any match lightly. We already know from their manager’s comments that Atletico will take this game very seriously indeed, not least because they have the chance to make a statement by beating the reigning European champions.“It’s a major challenge for us, and we’re going to win the Club World Cup – that’s our objective,” he said in the build-up to the big kick-off.Luis Enrique has said his team shares the same aim, although he attempted to play down the expectations surrounding PSG.“Anything can happen in a competition like the Club World Cup,” he told DAZN. “Football always has surprises. The goal is always the same in every competition, to try to be in a position to win that competition.”PSG vs Atletico Madrid betting tips. 18+ GambleAware.org – Please play responsibly.PSG vs Atletico Madrid betting tipsParis Saint-Germain and Atletico Madrid will go at it on matchday one of the Club World Cup.PSG to winPSG have so much momentum behind them after the Champions League victory that they will take some stopping in the USA.That is not to say they will inevitably win this competition – the likes of Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich will have plenty to say about that – but no one will enjoy facing PSG.Luis Enrique’s team have played plenty of matches this season, but they might actually be fresher than Atletico because of how dominant they are domestically.The La Liga outfit are a decent side, but they are not in this PSG team’s class. It is enough to follow the form book for this one. Select a PSG win at 10/11 with Betfred Over 2.5 goalsPSG gave a fine demonstration of their attacking quality throughout the Champions League knockout phase, while Atletico Madrid have long been renowned as one of the most obdurate opponents in Europe.On the face of it, then, this has the makings of an ‘irresistible force versus immovable object’ type of game.Yet that might not actually be the case. PSG are accustomed to facing defences that sit deep and aim to spoil in Ligue 1. And they are so electric going forward that they should be able to prise open Atletico’s backline.That means Simeone’s side will have to punch back when they can. That means breaking forward at speed and committing bodies to attack.For Atletico, this is akin to a free hit. They should still get out of the group even if they lose here, so they do not need to be overly risk-averse. Choose over 2.5 goals at 4/6 with BetVictor Desire Doue to score any timeDesire Doue was the star of the show in the Champions League final, scoring two goals and setting up another as PSG dazzled in Munich.Doue is now firmly established as a first-choice pick in PSG’s front three and he should feature from the first whistle at the iconic Rose Bowl, the stadium which hosted the 1994 World Cup final.Doue is an outstanding young talent who is destined for big things, but he is already one of the best forwards in the world.Atletico Madrid will probably try to get physical with the 20-year-old, but he should be able to handle that.Doue can make his mark in PSG’s first outing at the Club World Cup.
