A place in the final of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup is up for grabs as Brazilian club Fluminense pits itselfagainst England’s Chelsea. This semi-final match between ‘Flu’ and the ‘Blues’ on Tuesday at the MetLife Stadium comes with our prediction of both teams scoring goals. The winner goes on to the final to play the winner of the second semi-final between PSG and Real Madrid.
Fluminense have managed to keep their stubborn streak alive by remaining unbeaten in the tournament. Their scoring record has been impressive, with the Brazilians netting eight goals in their last three fixtures. While that could be put under pressure by Chelsea, they have enough squad depth to keep their winning sequence alive.
The Blues have failed to keep clean sheets in their two knockout games but have prevailed in the end. Will that continue in the semis against the last South American side left in the competition? Can Chelsea make it to the final? Read further to find what our analysis says, along with team news and our match predictions.

Fluminense - Chelsea: Form Analysis
Fluminense finished second in Group F behind Borussia Dortmund with five points from their three fixtures (W1, D2). Their two draws were 0-0 stalemates against Borussia Dortmund and Mamelodi Sundowns.
It was their knockout round performances that set things alight as Fluminense downed Inter Milan 2-0 in the round of 16 before edging Al Hilal 2-1 in the quarter-finals. Combined with these performances in the competition, the Brazilians are unbeaten now in 11 matches in all competitions (W8, D3).
Fluminense scored in 10 of their last 12 matches!
That streak could continue here, especially as Chelsea have struggled to keep clean sheets recently. The Blues defeated Palmeiras 2-1 in the quarter-finals to reach this round.
Chelsea needed extra time to defeat Benfica 4-1 in their first knockout round after the game ended 1-1 in regulation time. The Blues haven’t quite dominated the competition, as they finished second in Group D behind Flamengo with six points (W2, L1), with their lone defeat coming against Flamengo, a 3-1 loss.

Fluminense & Chelsea Squad Analysis
Fluminense will miss a couple of players from the knockouts, as their scorer from the quarter-finals, Martinelli, is suspended for this match after picking up a second yellow card in the competition. Juan Pablo Freytes is also suspended for this fixture.
Coach Renato Gaucho has switched to a back three in the knockouts after playing four in the defence in the league phase. The 3-5-2 system employed against Al Hilal in the last round would need Freytes and Martinelli to be replaced.
Jhon Arias leads Fluminense in terms of total shots, shots on target, and chances created!
Chelsea will look to Pedro Neto to continue his impressive scoring run, as he looks to add to his tally of three strikes in the tournament. He is likely to slot in again on the right side of the front three in their 4-1-2-3 formation, but they need to make a change up front.
Liam Delap is suspended for this match, while defender Levi Colwill is also out of this fixture after accumulating yellow cards. That could see Tosin Adarabioyo start at the back, while midfielder Moises Caicedo is back to being available. Recent signing Joao Pedro is likely to replace Delap in attack, although the transfer-listed Nicolas Jackson is a choice.
