Game Preview
The Brazilians have probably the strongest defense in the tournament. Some will say it’s not tested properly, but we ain’t doing that at all. Yes, their group was a bit easier than the others, with Porto, Inter Miami, and Al Ahly, plus Botafogo, in the Round of 16, but that doesn’t diminish their quality in the backline.
Palmeiras plays slow and very tactical football. When necessary, Verdao becomes physical as well. This team has very creative youngsters and is by far the most talented of all the non-European crews.
Chelsea almost wasted a win over Benfica, conceding a penalty in the final minutes and allowing the Eagles to come back and level the score. In the end, they won 1-4, but we are pretty curious about what would have happened if there hadn’t been Prestianni’s red card in extra time.

The Blues rolled over the rivals afterward, netting three goals in a short period and blitzing the rivals who didn’t know what hit them.
Palmeiras vs. Chelsea Head to Head
In 2022, these two teams met in the Intercontinental Cup finals, with Chelsea defeating Palmeiras 2-1. It was 1-1 following 90 minutes, as Lukaku and Veiga netted each, but Havertz converted a penalty in the 117th minute to give Chelsea the trophy.
Palmeiras vs. Chelsea Predictions
The match will be tough and low on chances because neither team is particularly attacking-minded, particularly Palmeiras. Therefore, under 2.5 goals is the best pick here.
