Tunis vs Chelsea prediction and odds ahead of Club World Cup clash

Enzo Maresca likely found himself worried after witnessing Chelsea's recent performance. Despite being fortunate to lead at halftime, the team unravelled, conceding three goals in the second half. Nicolas Jackson's rash red card, just four minutes after coming on, compounded their woes during a chaotic six-minute spell where they let in two goals.

Pedro Neto provided a glimmer of hope with his goal, marking two in two Club World Cup matches for him, but Cole Palmer struggled to make an impact once again.

As they prepare to face ES Tunis, Chelsea find themselves only narrowly ahead on goal difference. A draw would suffice to secure their place in the knockout stages, but a loss could see them exit the tournament prematurely.

ES Tunis experienced a similar setback against Flamengo, losing by two goals in their opening match, but they bounced back with a 1-0 victory over LAFC. This upcoming clash marks the first encounter between these teams, and ES Tunis might be encouraged by Chelsea's recent stumble — the first English team to lose a Club World Cup match in 13 years.

Despite this, bookmakers predict a challenging evening for ES Tunis and anticipate Chelsea will come out on top comfortably.
