Fans predict Winner over Chelsea vs PSG final Match

By Kings Olajide
Predictions have been pouring in by fans across the globe as the Premier League powerhouse, Chelsea FC is set to slug it out with the European champions, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) on Sunday, July 13, 2025, in the awaited final match of the ongoing Club World Cup.

After the Blues beat two Brazilian sides to reach the decider, and PSG impressively knocked out a pair of heavyweights, the two teams are tactically set to convene on New Jersey, the United States, on the aforementioned date.

It has been a productive summer thus far for Chelsea, who added another European trophy to their collection recently and secured qualification for next year’s Champions League before heading to the United States.

After their 2-0 victory over Fluminense in the Club World Cup semi-finals, the London side had posted five wins from six matches, en-route to Sunday's showpiece.

On Tuesday night, new signing Joao Pedro suggested he could be a perfect fit for Enzo Maresca's attacking puzzle, scoring in either half against his boyhood club to secure serene progress.

Previously, the Blues had seen off Flu's fellow Brazilians Palmeiras in the last eight and Benfica in the last 16. The latter win finally arrived despite a long weather delay and then extra time, but Chelsea's journey has been fairly smooth so far. ALSO READ >>>

Though they only finished second in Group D - due to a 3-1 defeat against Flu’s Rio rivals, Flamengo, Maresca's men fortunately avoided several big-hitters on the other side of the draw.

Global champions back in 2022, shortly before the Clearlake Capital revolution, Chelsea could now end a somewhat mixed year with a memorable cup double.

Much has changed since a mid-season slump almost derailed Maresca’s first campaign, and the Conference League winners are just one win away from more glory.

However, they must defeat the Europe's top team in order to claim a second Club World Cup, a task that would not be accomplished on a gold's platter.

PSG has been busy breaking new ground this year, so winning FIFA's revamped tournament would complete an already historic campaign in grand style.

The match will kick off at 20:00 (WAT), at New Jersey, USA.
