Chelsea faced Palmeiras in Philadelphia with a place in the semi-final at stake. The Blues entered as the only remaining English team, boosted by wins over Benfica and Flamengo, while missing Moisés Caicedo due to suspension. Palmeiras, unbeaten so far, topped their group, including a narrow extra-time win over Botafogo. The Paraguayan teen Estêvão—a future Chelsea player—added an emotionally charged subplot as he prepared to face his next club in what could be his final game for Palmeiras. Chelsea had the edge in control and shot creation, with Pedro Neto in form and Cole Palmer expected to lead the attack. Palmeiras relied on technical midfielders like Raphael Veiga and homegrown talent to level the contest.
