With half of the FIFA Club World Cup quarter-final ties set, teams can start planning their routes to the final. English representatives Chelsea will face Palmeiras on Saturday, 5 July, in Philadelphia (02:00 BST), following their extra-time win over Benfica. European champions Paris Saint-Germain will play Bayern Munich later the same day (17:00 BST), with both teams aiming for a rematch of the 2020 Champions League final.

Four last-16 matches remain, including Manchester City versus Al-Hilal on 1 July (02:00 BST). The last-16 draw saw Palmeiras, Chelsea, PSG, and Bayern Munich progress, with potential semi-final matchups between Manchester City and Chelsea and PSG or Bayern Munich versus Real Madrid.

The semi-finals and final will take place at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium, home to the 2026 World Cup final. The final is scheduled for Sunday, 13 July, at 20:00 BST, with no third-place play-off.
