Prediction: 1-1
Chelsea
Flamengo will look to build on a 2-0 win over Esperance Tunis when they take on star-studded Premier League side Chelsea in their second group game. The Rubro-Negro faced no difficulties in their FIFA Club World Cup opener, but they will have a mountain to climb against Enzo Maresca’s troops. With no fresh injury worries to report, Flamengo boss Filipe Luis is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated Esperance Tunis.
Meanwhile, Chelsea made a promising start to their FIFA Club World Cup campaign, with the team beating Los Angeles FC 2-0. Enzo Fernandez is widely expected to return to the starting XI after sealing the victory against the MLS outfit, while all Marc Cucurella, Reece James, and Tosin Adarabioyo are one yellow card away from suspension. Anyhow, we are tempted to place our bets on draw as both Chelsea and Flamengo should be happy with one point from Friday’s clash.
Highlighted Team (Chelsea):
Over the years Chelsea have established themselves as one of the dominant forces in the English Premier League. Roberto Di Matteo helped the team win their first ever Champions League trophy (2011/2012), but it has to be noted that they were more than fortunate to beat Bayern Munich in the title game.
Chelsea have been playing at Stamford Bridge since 1876 and they are a real force to be reckoned with at home. The Blues have won seven FA Cups, five League Cups, two UEFA Cup Winners’ Cups and the UEFA Europa League. Rafael Benitez was in charge of the team that faced Benfica in the 2012/2013 Europa League final, with Branislav Ivanovic scoring the winner for the Blues in the title clash.
After lifting the 2014/2015 Premier League trophy, the Blues largely struggled in the next campaign, which saw Jose Mourinho’s second spell with the club come to an end, and Antoine Conte went over to take the reigns for the 2016/2017 season.
