Chelsea vs PSG – Club World Cup Final Preview & Score Prediction
Kick-off is at 8 p.m. Moroccan time (GMT+1), and fans can catch the action live on the DAZN website and app.
PSG arrive in imperious form, having breezed past Real Madrid 4–0 in the semi-final following knockout wins over Bayern Munich and Inter Miami. Luis Enrique's side also topped a group featuring Atlético Madrid and Seattle Sounders, despite a surprise defeat to Botafogo.
Meanwhile, Chelsea edged out Fluminense 2–0 in the last four, with João Pedro netting twice. The Blues had previously seen off Palmeiras and Benfica in the knockouts, and qualified from their group with wins over LAFC and ES Tunis, despite a setback against Flamengo.
Chelsea captain Reece James is pushing for a return to the starting XI after appearing from the bench against Fluminense. Midfielder Moisés Caicedo is a doubt after rolling his ankle in the semi-final.
Levi Colwill and Liam Delap are back from suspension, though Delap is expected to remain on the bench. João Pedro should keep his place up front, with Cole Palmer and Christopher Nkunku supporting in attack.
PSG are expected to name an unchanged side. Ousmane Dembélé, who scored in the semi-final, is likely to start again. Defenders Lucas Hernández and Willian Pacho remain suspended.
Score Prediction:
Chelsea have grown into the tournament but now face their toughest test. PSG are in sensational form and have not conceded in the knockout rounds. Unless the Blues produce something special, Paris look set to claim their first Club World Cup title.

Madrid's Gonzalo Garcia Wins Golden Boots
Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Garcia has won the Golden Boot at the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup in the US, finishing as the tournament's top scorer. The 21-year-old scored four goals during the tournament but edged out fellow scorers Marcus Leonardo, Serhiy Kryvtsov and Ángel Di María thanks to an additional assist and a superior goal-per-minute ratio. This year's edition was the first expanded edition of the FIFA Club World Cup tournament, which included 32 teams from six federations. Garcia, despite his limited experience with the first team, has helped Real Madrid reach the semi-finals and made a name for himself on the global stage, and gained the trust of the club's head coach Xabi Alonso. 'I had no doubts about Gonzalo. What he's doing isn't a surprise,' Alonso told reporters after Madrid's match against Red Bull Salzburg. '[Garcia has] done it many times at Castilla. At least for him. He's the typical number nine, who knows how to wait for his opportunity, who moves well.' 'I'm very happy for him, he has Raul qualities in his movements', he added.
