Chelsea vs Es Tunis Prediction, 08:00 June 25: Be careful, Chelsea!

TPO - Football analysis Chelsea vs Esperance Tunis, FIFA Club World Cup 2025 at 08:00 on June 25, analysis of form, strength, expected lineup. Reputation does not guarantee victory if Chelsea cannot show their class against the ambitious Esperance Tunis with a very annoying playing style.

Prediction before the match Chelsea vs Esperance Tunis

The first ticket to the round of 16 in Group D belongs to the Brazilian representative, Flamego. The remaining spot will be the race between Chelsea and Esperance Tunis, both with 3 points. The winner will have the right to continue, the 90 minutes at Lincoln Financial Field therefore promises to be very exciting.

Chelsea opened with a 2-0 win over Los Angeles, but then lost 1-3 to Flamengo. Esperance meanwhile lost their first match to Flamengo but beat Los Angeles in the next to both get 3 points.

The common point between the two teams is that the attack lacks sharpness, especially the ability of the strikers to seize opportunities. In terms of reputation, Chelsea is more prominent than Esperance Tunis. However, this is almost meaningless if The Blues cannot show their class. Esperance Tunis's playing style is quite annoying, the defense is tight and when needed, they are very aggressive. Esperance players stick closely, promising to make Chelsea's stars not have much space to perform.

Team information

Esperance are without Youcef Belaili through suspension. Chelsea are also without Nicolas Jackson for the same reason, having been sent off against Flamengo just four minutes after coming off the bench. Apart from these two cases, both teams are almost completely intact for tomorrow's match.

Head to head record

The two teams have never met. In the last 5 matches, Chelsea lost 1 and won 4. The only loss was against Flamego in round 2. Similarly, Esperance Tunis also lost only 1 match against Flamego and won 4/5 of the most recent matches.
