Flamengo and Chelsea both won their opening game 2-0, with the Brazilian side currently top on fair play points. But the table is primarily ranked on head-to-head, so victory for either side would all-but seal a spot in the last 16.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea opened their 2025 Club World Cup campaign with a 2-0 win over Los Angeles FC, thanks to goals from Neto and Enzo Fernandez. It wasn&#8217;t a convincing win though and Chelsea know they face tougher opposition here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-chelsea-team-news-vs-flamengo\">Chelsea team news vs Flamengo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea came through their 2-0 win over LAFC unscathed, but there may be a change to the midfield. Enzo Fernandez came off the bench at half-time, replacing Romeo Lavia, and scored Chelsea&#8217;s second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Given the stature of the opposition, we may see Chelsea&#8217;s first-choice double pivot of Fernandez and Moises Caicedo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/flamengo-vs-chelsea\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flamengo vs Chelsea predictions, odds and betting tips<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There may also be a switch in defence, with Trevoh Chalobah a potential to come in for Tosin Adarabioyo. Adarabioyo started alongside Levi Colwill at the heart of Chelsea&#8217;s defence but was booked so is already on a tight rope. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Enzo Maresca may also opt to take the risk on Adarabioyo, knowing a yellow card against Flamengo would see the Englishman miss the final group match vs Esperance de Tunis &#8212; rather than a knockout stage game.<\/p>\n\n\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2>BOYLE Sports offer: Bet \u00a310 Get \u00a340 in free bets<\/h2>\r\n<p>Not signed up to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/boylesports\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BOYLE Sports<\/a> yet?

But he&#8217;s likely to start once again, ahead of Malo Gusto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Liam Delap came off the bench against LAFC to provide an assist, replacing Nicolas Jackson. The Senegalese forward may still get the nod though, as Delap continues to get used to his new team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-bright-debut-for-delap\">A bright debut for Delap<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Liam Delap will be looking to have another impactful appearance against Flamengo, whether that&#8217;s off the bench or from the start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Englishman didn&#8217;t score against LAFC, and didn&#8217;t manage a single shot. But he was a part of Chelsea&#8217;s fluid attack, with two chances created, one of which was a big chance. And, most importantly, he provided one assist with a lovely cross to Fernandez.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1388835\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc-214x267.jpg 214w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc-160x200.jpg 160w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc-48x60.jpg 48w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc-32x40.jpg 32w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/06\/18125534\/liam-delap-vs-lafc.jpg 1620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Delap was also pretty busy off the ball. The Englishman won possession twice in his 26 minutes on the pitch, once in the attacking third and once in the middle third. He also committed two fouls, putting himself about with his strength &#8212; trying to find the line with a new referee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And it hasn&#8217;t gone unnoticed among his Chelsea teammates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;He&#8217;s settled in very well.
