Club World Cup semi-final live updates: Al Hilal vs Chelsea

Starting XI: Kepa, Christensen, Silva, Rudiger Azpilicueta, Kovacic, Jorginho, Alonso, Ziyech, Lukaku, Havertz.. subs: Bettinelli, Mendy, Kante, Pulisic, Werner, Chalobah, Saul, Barkley, Mount, Hudson-Odoi, Kenedy, Sarr.

Thomas Tuchel makes three changes to the side that required extra-time to beat Plymouth last Saturday.

Kai Havertz, Marcos Alonso and Thiago Silva come in for Mason Mount, Malang Sarr and Callum Hudson-Odoi, all of whom drop to the bench.

Cesar Azpilicueta is hoping to complete a clean sweep of medals at the club having already won the Premier League, Champions League, Europa League, European Super Cub, FA Cup and League Cup.

He's also looking to make amends after coming on as a substitute during Chelsea's defeat to Corinthias in the 2012 Club World Cup final.

Starting XI: Al-Muaiouf, Alburayk, Jang, Al Bulayhi, Shahrani, Cuellar, Kanno, Salem, Pereira, Marega, Ighalo.

There are a couple of names you might recognise. Matheus Pereira is formerly of West Brom, of course, and scored twice in the club's 5-2 victory at Stamford Bridge last season.

Odion Ighalo was at Manchester United and Watford recently and has only just signed for Al-Hilal from Riyadh rivals Al Shabab.

Hello and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE text commentary of the Club World Cup semi-final between Al Hilal and Chelsea at the Mohammed bin Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi.

The Blues are bidding to make Saturday's final against Palmerias as they seek success in this competition for the first time. But first they must find a way past the Asian champions, who recorded a thumping 6-1 victory over Al Jazira Club in the last-eight.

We'll have the team news shortly ahead of this 16:30 GMT kick-off.
