Chelsea vs PSG Preview and Prediction: The Blues suffer a bitter defeat.

Latest Chelsea vs PSG team news

Chelsea received good news as Moises Caicedo has recovered from his ankle injury and returned to training with the rest of the team. However, manager Maresca may still be without some players from his expensive squad.

Dario Essugo and Romeo Lavia both have muscle problems, Benoit Badiashile's participation is uncertain, and Noni Madueke is almost certain to miss the game as he is currently in transfer negotiations with Arsenal. New signings Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and Estevao are ineligible to play.

However, Maresca will have the return of Levi Colwill and Liam Delap – who were suspended for the semi-final. Delap's return will put him in contention for a starting spot with Joao Pedro, who is likely to remain in the starting lineup after his impressive brace on his debut.

PSG may field their strongest lineup. However, coach Luis Enrique will still be without defenders Willian Pacho and Lucas Hernandez due to suspensions after receiving red cards in the quarter-finals.

Lucas Beraldo is likely to continue replacing Pacho, partnering with captain Marquinhos. The starting lineup at MetLife Stadium will probably remain unchanged.

Ballon d'Or nominee Ousmane Dembele finally made his league start against Real Madrid after recovering from injury. He is expected to continue leading PSG's familiar attacking line.

Latest football match prediction: Chelsea vs PSG

This summer has been going quite smoothly for Chelsea, as the London club not only added another European title to their collection but also secured qualification for next season's Champions League before heading to the United States.

Following their 2-0 victory over Fluminense in the Club World Cup semi-final, Chelsea have won five of their six matches to advance to the final on Sunday.

On Tuesday night, new signing Joao Pedro showed he could be the perfect piece in manager Enzo Maresca's attacking system by scoring in both halves against his childhood team, helping Chelsea comfortably secure qualification.

Previously, Chelsea had successively overcome Palmeiras (quarter-finals) and Benfica (round of 16). Although the victory against Benfica was interrupted by bad weather and went into extra time, their journey was generally quite smooth.

Despite finishing second in Group D after a 1-3 defeat against Flamengo – Fluminense's city rivals – Chelsea were fortunate to avoid many strong opponents in the other half of the bracket.

Having won the Club World Cup in 2022 – not long before Clearlake Capital took over – Chelsea can now cap off a year of ups and downs with a memorable double title win.

Since a mid-season slump nearly derailed Maresca's first season, the Conference League champions are now just one win away from glory.

However, their opponent is currently the strongest team in Europe – Paris Saint-Germain – if they want to win their second Club World Cup in history.

Meanwhile, PSG has made new strides this year, and if they win FIFA's revamped tournament, they will cap off a historic season in the perfect way.

After a setback against Botafogo in the group stage, PSG won all their matches until the final, culminating in two consecutive victories against Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.

After easily overcoming Inter Miami in the first knockout round, Luis Enrique's team beat Bayern 2-0, and then went on to demolish the 15-time European champions – Real Madrid – on Wednesday.

Following a run of four consecutive clean sheets, PSG capitalized on Real Madrid's mistakes to take an early 2-0 lead, before Fabian Ruiz scored his second goal, sealing the game in the first half.

Goncalo Ramos – who came on as a substitute – even sealed the victory in the final minutes, helping PSG repeat their opening match result against Atletico Madrid.

This dominant form has become commonplace for the Parisian club – who just beat Inter Milan 5-0 in the Champions League final, not long after scoring three goals to win the Coupe de France.

Under the guidance of an inspiring coach – who won the Club World Cup with Barcelona in 2015 – PSG is receiving well-deserved praise for its prolific goalscoring squad and tireless performance.

Nevertheless, they still have 90 minutes – or possibly more – to complete their miraculous quadruple.
