Chelsea vs Los Angeles FC Prediction (16.06.2025)

Chelsea showed that their level is much higher than the Conference League, where they won the trophy after a convincing victory over Real Betis in their last match. They finished fourth in the Premier League, and now they are once again in the Club World Cup, in its new format. Chelsea won this tournament in their last participation in 2021. It is expected that they will start with a victory now, and it would not be surprising if one of the new additions like Liam Delap makes his debut in attack.

It is a fact that LA Galaxy is on a streak of 10 consecutive matches without a loss in all competitions. However, it is also a fact that they are debutants in the tournament and it was difficult for them to reach it. They did it after extra time and a playoff against Mexican side Club America. Over 2.5 goals were scored in 9 of the last 11 matches of LA Galaxy. The match will be interesting also because of Olivier Giroud, who will lead the attack of the American team and will face one of his former clubs.

Nevertheless, I believe that Chelsea will justify their role as favorites and will achieve victory against debutants LA Galaxy. However, I do not rule out the team from Los Angeles scoring a goal, and over 2.5 goals is my other suggestion for the match.
