Mexico comes into this year’s tournament as huge favorites. La Tri won the nation’s ninth Gold Cup in 2023, and followed that up with a triumphant victory in the CONCACAF Nations League this past year. They bring in a lot of the talent that has helped them win over the past couple of years with the hopes of competing for a trophy once again.

The first full day of Club World Cup action delivers one of the most anticipated ties of the group stage as reigning European champions Paris Saint-Germain face off against Atletico Madrid at the Rose Bowl.
