This is a prediction and definitely everyone is allowed to pick a favorite side, but I think you would have at least give you some insight as to why you changed your mind from initially picking Chelsea, personally I wouldn’t agree with the excuse of Fluminense having a better or more experience in the club World Cup than Chelsea, I don’t know maybe you mean the players or the club as a whole but if it is the players I think Chelsea might have some players more that have played more intense games than this one. As for the club Chelsea aren’t just a pushover club even in their current period of misery they are a very big European club and that’s why they are here already.

For me I think the reason why I will go for Fluminense is just because they are one of the most dogged teams in the competition, from not been favourite to go out of the group to not been favourite to win any knockout matches and yet again been underrated. Chelsea on the other hand have had just one bad game in this competition which was against Flamengo. So I will say they are my favourite in terms of quality
I don't think Fluminense can beat Chelsea, especially in an important match like the semi-finals. Fluminense has definitely surprised us and unexpectedly qualified for the semi-finals. Their biggest achievement from this tournament is beating Inter Milan in the round of 16 to reach the quarter-finals. Based on this, we can definitely say that they have some chance of winning against Chelsea.

Now if you underestimate Chelsea based on these performances of Fluminense, then you might be wrong. Because Chelsea is still a big and well-known team in the Europa League. They might not make a mistake in the last stages of the tournament. I am not yet sure that Chelsea will win, but their chances of winning are high.
