Chelsea take on Brazilian opposition for the second knockout round running as they aim to reach the Club World Cup final.

Brazilian side Fluminense went from relegation candidate to surprise Club World Cup semi-finalists and will now face Chelsea as they aim to write a fairytale in the United States. The club from Rio de Janeiro is the only non-European club to reach this stage of the revamped tournament.

Against most expectations, Chelsea have reached the final four of the FIFA Club World Cup, taking advantage of a favorable draw in the knockout rounds after failing to win our group. And circumstances remain favorable at this semifinal stage, as we keep working our way through the cream of the crop of the Brazilian Série A.
