Chelsea vs Los Angeles FC FIFA Club World Cup 2025 Match Teams Preview
Chelsea Preview
Chelsea FC enter the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 full of momentum after a successful season that secured their return to UEFA Champions League football and a UEFA Conference League title—marking their first major trophy under the club's new ownership. With this triumph, Chelsea became the first football club in history to win all major UEFA trophies.
Managed by Enzo Maresca, the Blues are undergoing a rebuild centered on a young, high-potential squad. While the team shows promise, concerns remain over tactical flexibility and squad inexperience. Chelsea qualified for the expanded 32-team tournament by winning their second Champions League title four years ago and also lifted the Club World Cup in its previous format that same year.
As five-time Premier League champions, Chelsea are seen as Group D favourites but face stiff competition from Flamengo, LAFC, and Tunis. They begin their campaign against MLS champions Los Angeles FC, aiming for a strong start ahead of crucial fixtures against Flamengo and Tunis in the group stage.
Chelsea Predicted Lineup
Sanchez; James, Adarabioyo, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernández; Madueke, Palmer, Neto; Jackson
Los Angeles FC Preview
Los Angeles FC secured a surprise spot in the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 after replacing Club León, who were disqualified due to multi-club ownership conflicts. LAFC earned their place by defeating Club América in a playoff, coming from behind to win 2–1 in extra time, with goals from Igor Jesus and Denis Bouanga.
Riding a 10-game unbeaten streak, LAFC enter the tournament in top form. Under Steven Cherundolo, the Black and Gold have won every major MLS trophy in the past five years and believe they belong on this stage. Drawn in Group D with Chelsea, Flamengo, and Tunis, LAFC aim to cause an upset in their opener against Chelsea and push for a top-two finish, with the Flamengo clash likely to be decisive.
Los Angeles FC Predicted Lineup
Lloris; Palencia, Long, Marlon, Hollingshead; Tillman, Jesus, Delgado; Ordaz, Ebobisse, Bouanga
