Welcome to our second ever Club World Cup final!
We lost the first.
Let’s not do that again.
Tuchel, now in person, makes four changes from the semifinal — Palmeiras are unchanged from their win — with Mount replacing Ziyech, Hudson-Odoi replacing Alonso, Kanté replacing Jorginho, and Mendy coming back in for Kepa in goal. It’s probably a 3-4-3 with CHO as left wing-back, but possibly not. We’ll see!
Here we go!
Chelsea starting lineup (3-4-3):
Mendy | Rüdiger, Silva, Christensen | Hudson-Odoi, Kanté, Kovačić, Azpilicueta (c) | Havertz, Lukaku, Mount
