37'
FREE-KICK TO CHELSEA
Ze Rafael fouls Pulisic just outside the area, a fair way to the left of centre. It's perfect for Mason Mount, who has just gone off injured, so Pulisic will take it instead...
35'
BETTER FROM CHELSEA
Kante does well to release Pulisic on the right. He tries to pick out Havertz in the box, but Ze Rafael stretches to make a vital interception.

CHELSEA SUBSTITUTION
Mason Mount is going off injured, which is a big blow to Chelsea. Christian Pulisic replaces him.

30'
PALMEIRAS' BEST SPELL
Chelsea look frustrated and a little big sluggish.
27'
GREAT CHANCE FOR PALMEIRAS!
For all Chelsea's possession, it's Palmeiras who look more dangerous. Ze Rafael bounces Christensen off the ball and plays in Dudu, who is slightly off-balance and sidefoots tamely wide from 12 yards.
26'
HAVERTZ SHOOTS WIDE (AGAIN)
That was a poor effort, a scuffed daisycutter from 25 yards.
25'
HAVERTZ SHOOTS WIDE
That was a bit better from Chelsea, a crisp passing move that ended when Havertz drove wide from 20 yards.
24'
FINE EFFORT FROM DUDU!
Palmeiras are looking good on the break. Dudu cuts inside from the left, loses Azpilicueta and cracks a curling shot from 20 yards that whistles just over the bar. Mendy may have had it covered but it was a lovely effort.
23'
CHELSEA FRUSTRATION
Thiago moves forward, with nobody coming to challenge, and sprays a pass towards Mount in the area. Mount dithers and allows it to run out of play.
21'
ATTRITIONAL STUFF
Chelsea continue to dominate possession but so far they have struggled to create chances. Hudson-Odoi has looked good on the left; the rest, not so much.
17'
HALF-CHANCE FOR PALMEIRAS!
Dudu's wicked inswinging cross is headed up in the air by Rudiger, who did well under pressure from two Palmeiras players, and then headed straight at Mendy from 12 yards by Rony. It was a difficult chance as there was no real pace on the ball.
16'
FREE-KICK TO CHELSEA
Lukaku is fouled by Piquerez 22 yards from goal. The free-kick is a fair way to the right of centre - so perfect for Marcos Alonso, who isn't playing. Instead Mount curls a poor effort well wide of the near post.
14'
GOOD PLAY FROM HUDSON-ODOI
He cuts inside from the left and curls a teasing cross that is just too heavy for his fellow wing-back Azpilicueta. Hudson-Odoi looks a real threat for Chelsea.
11'
HUDSON-ODOI'S SHOT BLOCKED
Havertz did well, breaking through midfield and then finding the left wing-back Hudson-Odoi. He cut inside a couple of defenders on the edge of the area and hit a shot that was blocked.
10'
RONY SHOOTS MILES WIDE
He did well originally, cutting infield from the right, but then sliced an optimistic shot so badly that it went out for a throw-in on the far side.
10'
CHELSEA PROBING
They may need to be patient against this well-organised Palmeiras defence.
7'
CHELSEA DOMINATING POSSESSION
As expected, Palmeiras are very happy to sit deep and play on the counter-attack.
5'
RONY HEADS WIDE
Not much of a chance, a flicked header from a corner that he mistimed.
3'
2'
HALF-CHANCE FOR CHELSEA!
Hudson-Odoi's deep cross falls kindly for Azpilicueta in the six-yard box, back to goal, but he doesn't quite have his bearings and his low cross is cleared.
