Palmeiras vs Chelsea Preview

This should be a very tight contest based on the two sides performances to date. Palmeiras certainly have the form to trouble Chelsea, but my best bet is for under 2.5 goals and a double chance on the Brazilians.

Palmeiras are unbeaten in 13 of their last 15 matches
Palmeiras have seen under 2.5 goals in 3 of their last 4 matches
Chelsea have seen under 2.5 goals in 6 of their last 9 matches
Chelsea failed to win 2 of their last 3 matches (90 minutes)

Head to Head

These teams met in 2021 where Chelsea won 2-1 after extra time.

Palmeiras Form

Palmeiras secured their place in Saturday's FIFA Club World Cup quarterfinal after a gruelling victory against fellow Brazilians Botafogo at Lincoln Financial Field.

Following a goalless 90 minutes, Paulinho's goal, ten minutes into extra time, secured a quarter-final berth for the Verdão. Abel Ferreira's side remain unbeaten in four games played at the finals, including group phase draws against Inter Miami and Al Ahly.

Defensively strong, Palmeiras conceded just seven goals in their last 14 matches played (all competitions).

Chelsea Form

Chelsea finished second in their group after losing 3-1 to Flamengo in their final group game.

Enzo Maresca's side came through a dramatic last 16 clash against Benfica after the game was halted for over two hours due to thunderstorms.

After extra time, Chelsea were 4-1 victors. Both sides have very storng defensive records at the tournament, so a goal heavy game is unlikely.

Verdict

Palmeiras v Chelsea

I am backing under 2.5 goals and Palmeiras to avoid defeat in 90 minutes.
