Moises Caicedo, Chelsea's key player, returns after suspension and anticipates a tough game against the motivated and physical Brazilian team. "We are looking forward to this game and we have prepared well, trained well," said Caicedo, emphasizing the importance of the match. He also acknowledged Thiago Silva's return, calling him a legend.

This match is crucial for both teams, with Fluminense seeking to overcome past failures in the tournament and Chelsea aiming to prove their strength on the international stage. The outcome of this semi-final will determine which team advances to compete for the Club World Cup title.

Portaluppi stated, "It is a privilege to be coaching this team, and we are here to make history... we are up against powerful opponents with a financial advantage, but football is decided on the pitch so we need to keep that in mind."
