FIFA Club World Cup Quarter-Finals Confirmed: Clash of Titans and Rising Underdogs

The Round of 16 at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 has come to a close, and with it, the full quarter-final bracket is now set. Just seven matches remain to crown this year’s global champion, and the lineup promises both blockbuster clashes and potential upsets.

Quarter-Final Fixtures (July 4–5):

 Palmeiras vs Chelsea
 Fluminense vs Al-Hilal
 Paris Saint-Germain vs Bayern Munich
 Borussia Dortmund vs Real Madrid
 

The top half of the bracket offers a surprising twist. Early exits by tournament favourites Manchester City and Inter Milan have opened the door for less fancied — but equally ambitious — sides. One thing is already certain: at least one non-European club will reach the semi-finals. There's even a scenario where both finalists could represent either Brazil or Saudi Arabia.

Meanwhile, the bottom half is pure heavyweight territory. A mouthwatering showdown between Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich headlines the round, with the winner likely to meet another European giant in the semis. And with Borussia Dortmund facing Real Madrid, fans are in for a Champions League-worthy clash on a global stage.
