It is all or nothing for Chelsea tonight as they take on Brazilian giants Palmeiras in the Club World Cup quarter-finals. The Blues’ round of 16 meeting was a marathon affair, but through no fault of their own. A near two-hour weather delay imposed with just a few minutes of normal time remaining incensed Enzo Maresca, but the Blues saw the result over the line in extra time, eventually beating Benfica 4-1.

Today should, in theory, be a simpler outing for Chelsea, but Palmeiras are no pushovers. They have been generally uninspiring through the tournament thus far, but have a knack for digging deep and grinding out results. Chelsea supporters could get a look at new signing Joao Pedro this evening after the forward joined the camp from Brighton earlier this week, and will also be treated to the chance to watch Estêvão Willian before he moves to West London later this summer.

A meeting with Fluminense awaits tonight’s winner in the semi-finals. Follow the game LIVE below with our dedicated match blog, featuring expert insight and analysis.
