The Finalists: Road to MetLife
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG)
- UEFA Champions League 2024–25 winners
- Defeated Real Madrid 4-0 in the semifinal
- Standout players: Ousmane Dembélé, Fabian Ruiz, Kvaratskhelia, Desire Doue
- Conceded just 1 goal all tournament
PSG have been ruthless, dominant, and creative under Luis Enrique, dispatching top clubs like Inter Miami, Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid without breaking stride. Their pressing, width, and midfield balance make them heavy favorites.
Chelsea FC
- Defeated Fluminense 2-0 in the semifinal
- Also beat Palmeiras, Benfica, and LAFC on the way
- Star performers: Cole Palmer, Enzo Fernández, Joao Pedro
- One previous Club World Cup title (2021)
Under new manager Enzo Maresca, Chelsea have used the tournament as a testing ground — but they’ve grown stronger every round. With fast transitions and a deep midfield, the Blues could pose problems for the Parisians.
Tactical Preview
PSG’s Style
Luis Enrique has crafted a complete team:
- Compact in defence (only 1 goal conceded)
- 10 different goalscorers
- Wide threat via Doue and Kvaratskhelia
- Midfield control via Vitinha and Joao Neves
- Seamless rotations, high tempo, and tactical versatility
Chelsea’s Approach
Enzo Maresca’s side focus on:
- Possession-based buildup
- Fast counters – tournament-high goals from breaks
- Flexible forward line led by Joao Pedro and Cole Palmer
- Tight defensive structure, especially in knockout stages
Chelsea’s passing is deliberate (2nd lowest long ball rate after Man City), but when they attack, it’s direct and deadly.
