Fluminense have booked their place in the semi-finals with a 2-1 win over Al-Hilal, the Saudi team that eliminated Manchester City in the Game of the Century (so far). Can Palmeiras join them and set up the ultimate showdown of Rio vs. São Paulo (aka Carioca vs. Paulista)? Or will this upstart club from London called Chelsea knock them out?

Chelsea will be playing through off-field distractions – a hefty fine from Uefa and the tragic death of Liverpool’s Diogo Jota, whose close friend Pedro Neto may miss this match. (UPDATE: Pedro Neto is in the starting XI.)

This quarter-final is a rematch of the 2021 final, which Chelsea won 2-1 in extra time. Chelsea that year featured a young American named Christian Pulisic. We understand he’s no longer there.
