Chelsea were the better team when both sides faced off in the FIFA Club World Cup final. In a bizarre turn of events, Chelsea beat the newly crowned Champions League winners 3-0, thanks to a brace from Cole Palmer and a majestic finish from Joao Pedro.

This tie is a chance for Chelsea to prove themselves once again. Most fans believe the win over PSG was a fluke. While the gameplay and stats say otherwise, there’s nothing football fans love more than a rematch. In all honesty, PSG looked flaccid, tired, and worn out during that game, but so were Chelsea, who were coming off a gruelling domestic and Conference League campaign to beat the UCL champions.
The tie promises to be an exhilarating one, and football fans will be looking forward to it
