Chelsea vs PSG
Back the Champions League winners to add yet more silverware to their cabinet
Chelsea will face PSG at the MetLife Stadium on July 13th in the final of the Club World Cup.
Enzo Maresca’s Blues booked their place in the showpiece event courtesy of a double from summer signing Joao Pedro, and they will become the latest team attempting to halt the PSG juggernaut.
Although the West Londoners have been excellent throughout the summer, they must concede that they were given a fairly fortunate passage to the final, avoiding the likes of Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund. Manchester City’s shock early exit opened the door for Maresca’s men to ease their way into the latter stages of this tournament. Nevertheless, they’ve lost just a single match so far and were ruthlessly efficient against Benfica earlier in the competition.
PSG ploughed straight through Real Madrid on Wednesday night with the Parisian outfit racing into a three-goal lead in New York. Luis Enrique’s side looked unstoppable, taking 18 shots, eight of which landed on target and capitalising on Real Madrid’s howlers.
Their squad is full of confidence, and they are producing some mesmerising attacking patterns of play. Ousmane Dembele’s return to fitness, coupled with the form of Desire Doue, Fabian Ruiz, Vitinha and Khvicha Kvaratskheila, has produced some irresistible moments, and most opponents are finding them increasingly difficult to maintain.
This is going to be tough for Chelsea, and the bookmakers have understandably priced them up as the outsiders. If you back over 2 PSG goals in this game using BetPanda, you’ll get your money back if they net twice, and you’ll be paid out if they hit three past the Blues.
