Group D of the 2025 Club World Cup is heating up, and all eyes will be on Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia as Chelsea and Flamengo, two sides fresh off convincing wins, go head-to-head with first place on the line. It’s a clash between European pedigree and South American flair, and it promises to be one of the standout matchups of the tournament’s second round.
Chelsea cruised through their opener, dispatching Los Angeles FC 2-0 thanks to goals from Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandez. Despite coming off a demanding finish to the season that saw them lift the UEFA Conference League and secure a spot in next year’s Champions League, Enzo Maresca’s squad looked sharp, hungry, and full of ambition to go deeper in this competition.

Flamengo, meanwhile, also opened their campaign in style. A 2-0 win over Esperance de Tunis extended their unbeaten run to nine matches and confirmed that Filipe Luís’ team is not just here to participate, they’re here to contend. Goals from Giorgian De Arrascaeta and Luis Araújo showed just how dangerous this Flamengo front line can be.

Nicolas Jackson to score at any time: 5/2 (BetVictor)
For Nicolas Jackson, this is more than just another group stage match — it’s a personal proving ground. With Liam Delap recently added to the squad and eager to make his mark, Jackson knows his spot as Chelsea’s main man up front is under pressure. After scoring 13 times in 35 games this past season, including 10 in the Premier League, the Senegalese striker will be determined to convert his chances, especially after going close against LAFC. Expect him to be heavily involved in the final third.
Chelsea Win or Draw & Both Teams To Score: 11/8 (BetVictor)
European sides rarely take it easy against South American giants, and this fixture has all the makings of a thrilling encounter. Chelsea have won nine of their last ten matches and opened the scoring in seven of their last nine, but defensive lapses, like those seen against LAFC, leave them vulnerable.
Flamengo, with creative threats like De Arrascaeta, Pedro, and Luis Araújo, has more than enough firepower to capitalize. This pick backs a tight contest where both sides find the net, but Chelsea’s consistency gives them the edge to avoid defeat.
