Line-up:

Botafogo: John, Vitinho, Cunha, Barboza, Telles, Gregore, Allan, Freitas, Artur, Jesus, Savarino

The situation in Group B of this year's FIFA Club World Cup is quite interesting. Botafogo, a Brazilian team that is not highly rated, is sitting comfortably at the top of the group with 6 points.

They beat Seattle Saunders and then overcame a powerful Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) to get this result.

Meanwhile, PSG and Atletico Madrid both have 3 points, but the French team is in second place thanks to a better head-to-head record. Seattle Sounders is officially eliminated without any points.

In the final match, PSG will almost certainly beat Seattle Sounders, even by a large margin. Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid will have to beat Botafogo. If this scenario happens, all three teams will have 6 points and win back-to-back. At that time, the head-to-head goal difference factor will be taken into account.

And this is the tension of Group B. Atletico Madrid must win big against Botafogo after losing 0-4 to PSG. This will be a difficult task for coach Diego Simeone's team, because attacking is not their forte.

Meanwhile, Botafogo showed how good they are at defending despite being a Brazilian team with a fiery attacking style of play.

The final match of Group B of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup will take place at 2:00 a.m. on June 24.
