PSG vs Inter Miami FIFA Club World Cup 2025 Round of 16 Match Teams Preview
PSG Preview
Paris Saint-Germain advanced to the Round of 16 despite a surprise loss to Botafogo. After thrashing Atletico Madrid 4-0, PSG needed a win in their final group game and delivered with a 2-0 victory over Seattle Sounders, courtesy of Kvaratskhelia and Hakimi. They topped the group with six points, scoring six and conceding one. However, Seattle’s low block and counter-attacks exposed some weaknesses—something Inter Miami, led by Lionel Messi, could exploit. PSG are favourites but will need to stay sharp to avoid another setback.
PSG Predicted Lineup
Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Ruiz, Vitinha, Neves; Doue, Ramos, Kvaratskhelia
Inter Miami Preview
Lionel Messi watched his former club PSG reach the knockouts without him, Neymar, or Mbappé, and looked frustrated as Inter Miami blew a 2-0 lead late against Palmeiras, settling for a draw. Despite doubts over their shaky defence, Inter Miami advanced to the Round of 16—thanks to a historic win over FC Porto via a Messi free-kick and solid performances against Al Ahly and Palmeiras. Finishing second in Group A now pits them against European champions PSG. Messi, at 38, will face the club he left after two underwhelming seasons, coached by the same manager who guided him to his last Champions League title at Barcelona. Inter Miami remain unbeaten in six but face a tough test as the last remaining MLS side in the competition.
Inter Miami Predicted Lineup
Ustari; Weigandt, Aviles, Falcon, Allen; Allende, Redondo, Busquets, Segovia; Messi, Suarez

PSG vs Inter Miami Match Prediction
Despite the Messi factor, Inter Miami face a daunting challenge against PSG, who will be eager to step up after two unconvincing performances. While Miami’s deep block could pose problems, the Parisians are expected to prevail—even without the injured Ousmane Dembele. The Herons have already overachieved by reaching this stage, but Messi’s reunion with his former club may not end happily.
We predict a 3-1 win for Luis Enrique’s side, securing a spot in the quarterfinals.
