Prediction: 0-2
Chelsea
Chelsea will look to recover from a shocking 3-1 loss to Flamengo when they take on Esperance Tunis in their last group game at the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup. The Blues are one point away from booking their spot in the knockout stages, but we are positive that Enzo Maresca’ men will go for a win against the Tunisian champions. With Nicolas Jackson missing out through suspension, summer signing Liam Delap is widely expected to lead the line for the nominal visitors.
Noni Madueke is pushing for a start as well. Esperance Tunis, on the other hand, face a must-win situation in the decider. As Chelsea should have a number of opportunities to score on the break, we are tempted to place our bets on the Premier League outfit. Maher Kanzari has no fresh injury worries ahead of the Lincoln Financial Field showdown.
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.
