After days of action-packed football in the USA, the FIFA Club World Cup has come down to the final stage, with Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain set to clash in the highly anticipated final. The Chelsea vs PSG fixture will be hosted at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on July 13, 2025, as per the GMT. Ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup, let's take a look at Chelsea vs PSG preview:

Having won the FIFA Club World Cup in the past, Chelsea will aim to replicate the feat this time in the USA. The UEFA Conference League winners beat Fluminense by 2-0 in the semi-finals to book their spot in the finals, and now they will lock horns against the current UEFA Champions League winners, PSG, who are in fine form. Enzo Maresca's team have improved as the season progressed, and he has managed this side very well and will hope to help his team win another trophy this season. This will be the first time these two sides meet outside of the Champions League. The Blues will be confident going into this match and will hope to win and make their fans proud.

In the group stage, when PSG lost to Botafogo, everyone thought they would not win the Club World Cup, but they have proved everyone wrong and made it to the finals. They trashed Real Madrid by 4-0 in the semifinals and fully deserved to be in the finals. Despite facing some very strong teams in this competition, they have shown their quality and attacking prowess each and every time. In the last few fixtures, they have performed well against the Blues and got positive results and will hope to do it in the finals as well. This will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.

Chelsea Team News

João Pedro delivered an excellent performance in the absence of Liam Delap, and surely Maresca will have his doubts about whom to start in the final. On the other hand, there are some doubts over Caideco's availability for the finals. The rest of the squad is fit and will be available for the match.

PSG Team News

Hernandez and Pacho both will be suspended for the finals, and apart from these two players, there won't be any absences for the PSG in the final. Luis Enrique's men will be confident going into this match as they are clear favourites and will look to win another silverware to their trophy cabinet.

Key Players to Watch in Chelsea vs PSG

Cole Palmer (Chelsea)

Palmer has been one of Chelsea's most impactful players of the 2024/25 Premier League season so far. Under Maresca's tactics, he is shining and is delivering results consistently. he often uses his pace and height to intercept passes between the lines and challenge efficiently when put in defensive duel situations. He is someone who can trouble the PSG's defence the most and can make a difference on the field. His performance will be crucial for the Blues to get a positive result in the final. This season, he played 41 games in which he scored 16 goals and provided eight assists.

Ousmane Dembele (PSG)

Dembele is a frequent defender, and not only isolates defenders, but creates separation between himself and the defender by forcing the defender back and beating them with pace. He is very dangerous in and around the box as he can beat players with his trickery and can create chances for himself and his teammates. He is a relentless presser off the ball, and his intensity makes it very difficult for opponents to keep the ball at their feet. He has become more ruthless in front of the goal and is now a clinical finisher. Most probably, he will win the Ballon d'Or this season for his exceptional performance. This season, he played 51 matches in which he scored 35 goals and provided 12 assists.

Chelsea vs PSG Prediction

Both teams have performed well in this tournament and deserve to be in the finals. This will be an intense and mouthwatering clash for sure. This will be the first time these two sides will lock horns in a final. Without any doubt, this upcoming clash will be an exciting one for sure. Most probably, the Champions League winner will win this fixture and lift the Club World Cup. Here's Sportsdunia's Chelsea vs PSG Prediction:
