Seattle Sounders vs. PSG: Preview, Predictions and Lineups
Despite succumbing to a stunning defeat last time out, Paris Saint-Germain will book their place in the Club World Cup round of 16 with a victory over the Seattle Sounders on Monday.
Luis Enrique only made a couple of changes from the team that thumped Atlético Madrid for their clash with South American champions Botafogo, and they were stifled by Renato Paiva’s side in a 1–0 defeat.
There’s no reason for panic, though, with PSG expected to cruise into the knockout stages. The Sounders have so far acquitted themselves pretty well at the tournament, but the gulf between these two teams is seismic. The MLS side haven’t been eliminated just yet, but they require a miracle to advance.
Only a victory of at least three goals over the UEFA Champions League winners and a win for Botafogo over Atléti will see Seattle into the next phase. PSG, meanwhile, will likely top the group should they triumph at Lumen Field and Botafogo are beaten.
Here is Sports Illustrated’s guide to this Club World Cup fixture.

Center back Yeimar Gómez entered the tournament carrying a knock and hasn’t played a part in Seattle’s opening two fixtures. Kim Hee-kim was also an injury concern on Matchday 1 but started against Botafogo. He returned to the bench last time out, however.
Stuart Russell Hawkins should miss out again, while Kalani Kossa-Rienzi was forced off late on Matchday 2. Paul Arriola is a long-term absentee.
Albert Rusnák has been the star of Seattle’s 2025 MLS campaign, and the creative midfielder was on the scoresheet in the defeat to Atléti. He’ll aim to inspire a major upset from a number ten position.
Seattle Sounders predicted lineup vs. PSG (4-2-3-1): Frei; Roldan, Bell, Ragen, Baker-Whiting; Roldan, Vargas; De La Vega, Rusnák, Kent; Ferreira.
PSG undoubtedly felt the absence of Ousmané Dembélé against Botafogo, with Enrique again opting for Gonçalo Ramos up top. While Dembélé, who’s struggling with a thigh injury, is likely to be preserved for the knockout stages—assuming the European champions progress—there could be a change to their frontline.
Bradley Barcola was utilised as PSG’s false nine in their 2–1 victory over Arsenal in the second leg of the Champions League semifinals, and the winger could perform a similar role on Monday.
Nuno Mendes, Marquinhos, João Neves and Fabián Ruiz should all return to the starting XI.
PSG predicted lineup vs. Seattle Sounders (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Beraldo, Mendes; Vitinha, Neves, Fabián; Doué, Barcola, Kvaratskhelia
PSG lacked a bit of punch against a resilient Botafogo, with the Brazilians’ stunning triumph likely to serve as a wake-up call for the European champions.
They may be without Dembélé again, but Enrique is otherwise expected to name a full-strength team against the Sounders. They’re poised to bounce back on Monday.
While Seattle have performed admirably in their two defeats at the tournament, PSG are a class above and they’re bound to be swept aside without laying a glove on the French behemoths.
Prediction: Seattle Sounders 0–3 PSG

Report: Seattle Seahawks interviewing 49ers assistant for OC
The Seattle Seahawks are interviewing San Francisco 49ers run game coordinator/tight ends coach Brian Fleury for their offensive coordinator job on Saturday, according to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Why Bump is confident Seahawks will nail their OC search
Fleury is the sixth reported offensive coordinator candidate for the Super Bowl champion Seahawks, who are searching for a new OC after Klint Kubiak departed to become the Las Vegas Raiders’ head coach.
Seattle’s other reported OC candidates include four in-house options: quarterbacks coach Andrew Janocko, run game specialist/assistant offensive line coach Justin Outten, passing game coordinator Jake Peetz and tight ends coach Mack Brown. Arizona Cardinals pass game specialist Connor Senger also was reported as a candidate.
Fleury spent the past seven seasons on 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan’s staff. He was the 49ers’ defensive quality control coach in 2019, their offensive quality control coach in 2020-21, their tight ends coach from 2022-24 and their run game coordinator/tight ends coach in 2025.
Fleury began his NFL coaching career as the Buffalo Bills’ quality control coach in 2013. He then spent two seasons in Cleveland, where he was the Browns’ assistant linebackers coach in 2014 and their outside linebackers coach in 2015. He then spent three seasons in Miami, serving as the Dolphins’ football research analyst in 2016 and their director of football research in 2017-18.

Nancy Guthrie: At least 3 reportedly detained in connection with case
Nancy Guthrie: 3 reportedly detained in case
Three people have reportedly been detained in connection with the investigation into Nancy Guthrie case. Officials with the Pima County Sheriff’s Department said there will be no formal statement on the developments for now.
TUCSON, Ariz. – Fox News is reporting that at least three people have been detained on Feb. 13 in connection with the investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, citing an otherwise unnamed local law enforcement source.
Big picture view:
“The source says after receiving a tip, authorities detained two males, plus one of their moms. The source said a warrant had been served,” read a portion of the Fox News article. “The source cautioned that during a warrant execution ‘technically everyone is detained.’”
Meanwhile, officials with the Pima County Sheriff’s Department said “law enforcement activity is underway at a residence near E. Orange Grove Rd & N. First Ave related to the Guthrie case.”
“Because this is a joint investigation, at the request of the FBI – no additional information is currently available,” read a portion of the X post.
What’s next:
Fox News is reporting that according to the Pima County Sheriff’s Department, a written statement will be released.
The backstory:
Nancy, who is the mother of “Today” show co-host Savannah Guthrie, was last seen on the night of Jan. 31 after being dropped off at her Catalina Foothills home near East Skyline Drive and North Campbell Avenue. She was reported missing the next day after her family was notified that she hadn’t shown up for church.
Authorities say she was taken from her home against her will and is without her necessary medication. Photos taken at the scene show blood drops on the porch of Nancy’s home.
On Feb. 11, FBI officials said they were “conducting an extensive search” along roadways in the Catalina Foothills area near Guthrie’s home.
“Numerous FBI agents are conducting an extensive search along multiple roadways in the Catalina Foothills area related to the Nancy Guthrie investigation,” the FBI’s Phoenix field office said in a statement. “We are asking the medi and motorists to follow all traffic laws and to remain especially cautious when passing law enforcement personnel near the roadways.”
On Feb. 12, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department asked residents within a two-mile radius of Nancy’s home to submit “all video footage that includes vehicles, vehicle traffic, people/pedestrians, and anything neighbors deem out of the ordinary or important” from Jan. 1 to Feb. 2.
On Feb. 13, PCSD said that DNA other than Nancy’s and “those in close contact to her” were collected from the property, and investigators are working to identify who it belongs to. PCSD is not saying where the DNA was located.
