Club World Cup forecast: Paris 1/2-1 Atletico Madrid, Bayern 4/5-0 O, Papa 12 Porto, Bota 22/31

From 00:00 on June 16 to 10:00 on June 16, on the second match day of the 2025 Club World Cup, four matches will be staged in Group A, B and C - 00:00, Bayern vs. Auckland; 03:00, Paris vs. Atletico Madrid; 06:00, Palmeiras vs. Porto; 10:00, Botafogo vs. Seattle.

Among them, the appearance of the three giants including Bayern, Paris and Atletico Madrid will undoubtedly attract great attention on the second match day of the Club World Cup.

So before the game, football statistics websites WhoScored and Sports Illustrated FC also made predictions for these four focus games.

WhoScored predicts that

Bayern Munich 4-0 Auckland City

Bundesliga champion Bayern Munich entered the game with a stable state of unbeaten 7 games, but in fact, the South King only won 4 games during this period. And before this difficult showdown with Bayern, Auckland has won all of its last four games.

However, Auckland's victory and game are actually of limited value. So, if Bayern cannot win easily in this game, that will be the biggest surprise!

Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 Atletico Madrid

Paris Saint-Germain hopes to win the Club World Cup championship this summer to increase the number of trophys this year. However, they face a difficult task when they fight against La Liga powerhouses to embark on their journey.

After all, Paris Saint-Germain lost in the last match between the two teams, but they should probably make up for it with their strong strength in this game.

Palmeiras 1-2 Porto

Palmeiras lost 2 of his last three games, but won 8 of his last 10 games;

In contrast, Porto ended the season with a strong momentum and won the last three league games.

Comprehensive comparison, Portugal's team should have enough advantages to win this game.

Botavogo 2-2 Seattle Bayer

Botavogo has won all of his last three games after two consecutive games. However, they have poor away record this season.

The Seattle Bayer is not in good shape, and has only won 2 of the last 6 games.

Therefore, in such a relatively stalemate, both sides may be able to share the fruits of the competition together.

Sports Illustrated FC score prediction

Bayern Munich 5–0 Auckland City

This is a real David vs. Goliath. (The allusion of Goliath and David originated from Chapter 17 of the Bible - 1 Samuel, which tells the story of the young shepherd boy David defeating the strong with a weak defeat and defeating the Philistine giant Goliath with a thief. This incident not only laid the foundation for David's prestige to become the king of Israel, but it is also given symbolic meanings such as weak defeating the strong and faith overcoming force.)

Auckland may have more Club World Cup experience than their opponents, but Bayern's strength is incomparable to part-time teams.

Therefore, the Bundesliga champion will surely win this game easily. However, it would be great if Oakland scored.

Paris Saint-Germain 1–1 Atletico Madrid

Given Paris's wonderful performance in Munich, it is not surprising that Paris has become a popular team in the Club World Cup championship that many people are optimistic about. Will they definitely win the championship? At least the first game against Atletico Madrid can't be so optimistic. Moreover, despite Paris' outstanding performance, they cannot replicate the level of the team's performance against Inter Milan in the Champions League final.

Therefore, Atletico Madrid has the opportunity to win here and let their journey start smoothly. Moreover, what is beneficial to Atletico Madrid is that perhaps they are unlikely to encounter a Paris Saint-Germain here at this time.

Palmeiras 1-2 Porto

Although many expect European teams to dominate this summer's Club World Cup, the game still has a competitive trait.

Porto undoubtedly showed better strength in all competitions, and although Palmeiras' performance at the start of the domestic season has fluctuated, he shone in the Copa Libertadores. Palmeiras has several new stars who are expected to make their mark in the event, which also forces everyone to think that this game is of great significance to them. But for the Portuguese Super League team, they actually have a strong motivation to show their strength and potential on such a stage.

This game will be very intense, but we support Porto's narrow victory.

Bottafogo 3–1 Seattle Bayer

Although Bottafogo has performed strongly recently, neither team has achieved amazing performances in the domestic arena this season. Both teams realized they needed to score 3 points to stand out from the group, which also included the powerful Paris and Atletico Madrid.

The Gulf people are good at playing at home, but we should not expect them to feel the atmosphere at home every few weeks as they did in the AP League. Home advantage balances the game to some extent, but the Botafogo will overcome adversity and start their journey with a victory.
