Chelsea continue their Fifa Club World Cup campaign this evening in Philadelphia against Brazilian side Flamengo.
The Blues got their tournament off to a perfect start on Monday against LAFC with Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandez on the scoresheet in a comfortable 2-0 win with new signing Liam Delap also impressing.
Flamengo are sterner opposition tonight however with Jorginho in line to start against his former side, having left Arsenal to join the Brazilians last month.
Former Blues full-back Filipe Luis is also in the dugout.
After winning their opening games, both Chelsea and Flamengo can take a huge step towards qualification for the knockout stages with victory tonight.
