Chelsea v Paris Saint-Germain team news: Confirmed line-ups for Club World Cup final

Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea meet in New York in the Club World Cup final as they each look to become the inaugural winners of the newly expanded tournament.

Champions League winners PSG are the heavy favourites to win their fifth trophy of the calendar year, including the Trophee des Champions, having hammered Real Madrid 4-0 in the semi-final and previously knocked out Bayern Munich.

Chelsea, though, have also progressed through the knockout rounds with little difficulty, albeit against less illustrious opposition, and Joao Pedro’s double in their last-four victory over Fluminense provided an illustration of the additional he threat he offers the Blues following his arrival from Brighton and Hove Albion.

Pedro will once again be involved from the start at MetLife Stadium as an extremely long season for both teams comes to an end.

Chelsea received a huge boost when it was confirmed Moises Caicedo would be fit to start in midfield.

Caicedo suffered an ankle injury in the semi-final win over Fluminense.

But he will feature in his crucial role in the Chelsea engine room, while Levi Colwill and Liam Delap each return from suspension – although the latter on the bench.

Chelsea: Sanchez; Gusto, Chalobah, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez, James; Neto, Palmer, Pedro.

Ousmane Dembele will again lead the line for PSG.

Dembele started for the first time in the tournament in their demolition of Real Madrid and was withdrawn just before the hour mark with an emphatic victory all but secured.

Désiré Doué and Kvicha Kvaratskhelia flank Dembele, who could significantly strengthen his case for the Ballon d’Or with an instrumental performance that helps PSG add to their historic 2024-25 treble.

Paris Saint-Germain: Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Beraldo, Nuno Mendes; Vitinha, Joao Neves, Fabian Ruiz; Doue, Dembele, Kvaratskhelia
