Palmeiras have announced that defender Murilo has suffered an injury to his left thigh and is likely to miss the rest of the tournament.

Bruno Rodrigues and Figueiredo are both absent.

Estevao Willian, the young talent who has already signed with Chelsea, might face his future club.

Since their 2022 Club World Cup final, Palmeiras has seen significant changes; only goalkeeper Weverton is expected to start from that team.

Gustavo Gomez and Joaquin Piquerez are suspended and will not play.

Marcos Rocha and Raphael Veiga, key players in 2022, are unlikely to start due to their lower position in the squad.

For Chelsea, Nicolas Jackson is suspended after being sent off in their 3-1 defeat to Flamengo.

Mykhailo Mudryk is also banned, and Wesley Fofana is out due to injury.

New signing Joao Pedro has joined the squad from Brighton, providing another attacking option.

Despite this, Liam Delap is expected to start.

Wesley Fofana is the only confirmed injury in the first-team squad.

Reece James is available and aiming to stay fit for the tournament, having missed the 2022 final due to injury.
