Fresh off securing their maiden UEFA Champions League title, Luis Enrique’s PSG side are aiming to complete the set on the global stage. Their 4-0 demolition of Real Madrid in the semi-finals was a statement, and now they’re just one win away from immortality.

Chelsea, meanwhile, were already global champions in 2021 under the old tournament format, and are now chasing a second world crown and the chance to make history as the only English side to win multiple Club World Cups in the 21st Century.

A team with European pedigree and big-game grit, they’re well aware of the odds — and ready to flip the script.

According to Paddy Power, a win for the French giants is priced at 6/10, while they’re even stronger favorites to lift the trophy at 3/10.

Chelsea, on the other hand, are serious underdogs, backed at 4/1 to win in 90 minutes and 5/2 to take home the title. A draw after regular time sits at 3/1.

Bet Builder and top props for Club World Cup 2025 final

Total Over 3.5 goals: 4/7 (Spreadex)

If recent history is anything to go by, the final is shaping up to be a goal-fest. Enrique’s rejuvenated PSG aren’t just winning, they’re doing it with style and an avalanche of goals.

They swept aside Reims 3-0 in the French Cup final and obliterated Inter Milan 4-0 on Europe’s biggest stage in the Champions League finale. Add to that commanding 4-0 wins over Atletico Madrid, Inter Miami, and Real Madrid, and it’s clear the Parisians have turned ruthless efficiency into an art form.

Chelsea have also been far from shy in front of goal. They’ve found the net in every match of this tournament, including a hat-trick past Benfica and back-to-back braces against Palmeiras and Fluminense. With both sides in red-hot scoring form, this final promises fireworks — and betting on over 3.5 goals could be well worth a flutter.

Ousmane Dembele to score at any time: 6/5 (Spreadex)

Ousmane Dembele has been electric this season — unstoppable, unselfish, and unrelenting. With 35 goals and 16 assists to his name, the Ligue 1 top scorer has lifted silverware in every competition he’s touched: league, domestic cup, and Europe’s elite tournament.

Crowned the Champions League’s best player thanks to his eight goals and six assists, the Frenchman is now closing in on a clean sweep with the Club World Cup.

Back from injury and already netting twice in this competition, Dembele looks primed to steal the spotlight again. If PSG are to clinch global supremacy, don’t be surprised if it’s Dembele delivering the final blow, another step toward a potential Ballon d’Or coronation (check out his latest odds here).

Chelsea vs. PSG predicted lineups, team news

Nicolas Jackson has not started since returning from his red card, stuck behind semifinal hero Joao Pedro and new signing Liam Delap up front. Pedro scored a pair against Fluminense in his first start for Chelsea and is likely to be the choice again here, while Delap will be available after missing the semifinals due to yellow card suspension.

Also back from suspension is Levi Colwill, while the status of Romeo Lavia is up in the air as he trains individually after a muscle injury, missing the quarter-final. Benoit Badiashile was spotted on crutches after the quarterfinal victory over Palmeiras, meaning Tosin Adarabioyo or Trevoh Chalobah will likely retain their spot at the back.

Noni Madueke has played sparingly while rumours swirl of a potential summer transfer, and he's unlikely to be risked unless Chelsea become desperate for attacking injection off the bench.

• Chelsea predicted XI (4-2-3-1, right to left): Sanchez (GK) — Gusto, Tosin, Chalobah, Cucurella — Fernandez, Caicedo — Neto, Palmer, Nkunku — Pedro.

Injured: Lavia (muscle, doubt), James (muscle, doubt), W. Fofana (muscle), Kellyman (hamstring), Badiashile (leg)
Suspended: None

PSG will be without defenders Willian Pacho and Lucas Hernandez after picking up red cards against Bayern Munich. Both received two-game bans, and thus will be absent for this game. Lucas Beraldo was fantastic in place of Pacho against Real Madrid in the semifinal and will likely get another start.

Star forward Ousmane Dembele made his first start in the semi-finals after returning from a thigh injury, scoring PSG's second goal against Real Madrid. Bradley Barcola will likely return to his regular substitute role off the bench.

Otherwise, PSG have their full list of regulars available for action, a boon for the reigning Champions League winners who have steamrolled their competition throughout this season.

• PSG predicted XI (4-3-3, right to left): Donnarumma (GK) — Hakimi, Marquinhos, Beraldo, Mendes — Neves, Vitinha, F. Ruiz — Doue, Dembele, Kvaratskhelia.

Injured: None
Suspended: Pacho (red card), L. Hernandez (red card)
