----------------------------------
Team Analysis
Atletico Madrid, despite a 0-4 thrashing by PSG in the opener, rebounded with a 3-1 win over Seattle Sounders, showcasing their typical defensive solidity—conceding only 1 goal after the first half. Their counterattacking efficiency has improved, with 3 goals from 7 shots on target against Seattle. Botafogo RJ, who stunned PSG 1-0, rely on a 5-4-1 low block but may struggle to replicate the same intensity after consecutive high-intensity matches. Their attacking output has declined, with only 2 goals in the last 3 games.
Tactical & Lineup Analysis
Atletico Madrid (4-4-2)：
Coach Diego Simeone is likely to start with Julian Alvarez and Antoine Griezmann up front, leveraging Griezmann's playmaking (2 assists vs Seattle). Midfielders Koke and Rodrigo De Paul will control tempo, while wing-backs Nahuel Molina and Yannick Carrasco provide width. Center-back Stefan Savic returns to solidify the defense, which conceded 4 goals due to rotation in the first match.
Botafogo RJ (5-4-1)：
They may maintain a defensive setup, with Igor Jesus leading the line. However, left-back Guilherme Arana's injury weakens their defensive balance—PSG exploited their right flank 6 times in the last match. Midfielder Tchê Tchê's 3 interceptions will be key to disrupting Atletico's build-up.
Nowgoal Prediction
Atletico's adjusted backline (Savic + Gimenez) should reduce defensive errors, while Griezmann's connection with Alvarez (1 goal, 1 assist vs Seattle) poses a constant threat. Botafogo, lacking offensive depth, may struggle to break through Atletico's high press—they were forced into 12 turnovers by PSG's pressure.
