Chelsea vs ES Tunis LIVE

The Blues are in Philadelphia tonight looking for the point needed to reach the Club World Cup knockout stage. A deserved defeat to Flamengo last week delayed Chelsea's progress party, but they will meet Benfica in the last-16 stage on Sunday with a draw tonight.

Nicolas Jackson was sent off as second-half goals from Bruno Henrique, Danilo and Wallace Yan brushed the Blues aside last time out, and Enzo Maresca will be demanding improvement against a team with also one win and one defeat to their name, having also lost to Flamengo and beaten LAFC.

It leaves the two teams level on points heading into this Group D decider, but as they boast a goal difference one better than their Tunisian counterparts, then a point is enough for Chelsea to advance. ES Tunis, though, need to win so must take the game to the Blues in Philly. Follow the game LIVE below with our dedicated match blog, featuring expert insight and analysis from Dom Smith.
