Who is playing today? 👀

We start in Orlando with easily the least expected quarter-final clash of the tournament.

Saudi Arabian giants Al Hilal, having shocked Manchester City in the last round, take on Brazilian outfit Fluminense.

Flu were the winners of their own surprise in the last 16 as they beat Inter to book their place at the Camping World Stadium.

It means we can guarantee a non-European team in the semi-final and that, surely, can only be good for the competition.

Then overnight we travel to Philadelphia as Palmeiras take on Premier League big-spenders Chelsea.

Can the Blues and their millions overcome one of the more dogged outfits left in the tournament?


Player to watch 🔍

Reece James is officially back.

The Chelsea captain has been beset with injuries for the past couple of years leading many to think that, despite being only 25, that his best days were behind him.

James has rubbished that this summer though with a series of excellent performances down Chelsea's right-hand side.


Must-watch video 🎥

Palmeiras are taking their preparations for tonight's game very seriously ...
