With Inter Milan heavily favored to win the group, this fixture could well prove pivotal in deciding who grabs the second qualification spot for the knockout rounds.<\/p><p>River Plate are the most successful club in their country&rsquo;s history and are guided by returning manager Marcelo Gallardo. While the Argentine side have failed to win their last two matches, River were on a five-game winning streak before that and have enough talent to bounce back.<\/p><p>Meanwhile, three-time AFC Champions League winners Urawa Red Diamonds are making their third appearance in the Club World Cup. The Japanese side currently sit fourth in the J1 League but have struggled for consistency recently, winning just two of their last seven games. <\/p><p>On paper, River Plate are the stronger team and should have enough firepower to take the three points. But Urawa&rsquo;s resilience and ability to hit on the counter could make this a tighter contest than expected. With a lot riding on this opener, expect a tense and tactical battle at MetLife Stadium.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"es\" dir=\"ltr\">&iexcl;&#119829;&#119808;&#119820;&#119822;&#119826; &#119821;&#119822;&#119826;&#119822;&#119827;&#119825;&#119822;&#119826;! &#129293;&#10084;&#65039;&#129293;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FIFACWC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#FIFACWC<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/RiverMundial?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#RiverMundial<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/wM281QdH4Z\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/wM281QdH4Z<\/a><\/p>&mdash; River Plate (@RiverPlate) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RiverPlate\/status\/1934817236960641302?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>June 17, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">River Plate Injury News<\/h2><p>River Plate head into the tournament with a largely fit squad, with Agustin Ruberto being the only fitness concern.
