Champions will go head to head when LAFC and Chelsea battle in their opening matches at the FIFA Club World Cup on Monday, with the matchup putting the 2024 U.S. Open Cup champions against the 2025 Europa Conference League winners.

Olivier Giroud will not recognise many faces at his former club Chelsea but is looking forward to LAFC showing how MLS stacks up.

And while the international World Cup is the first thing that comes to mind for most fans, the version at the club level has produced some memorable moments, albeit a bit more under the radar. With the tournament’s ambitious expansion for more teams and a quadrennial format, we’ll be sure to get more of those iconic feats moving forward.

The Vancouver Whitecaps lost 5-0 in the Concacaf Champions Cup final. What will happen when MLS sides face even sterner tests in the Club World Cup?
