LAFC<\/a> meet Tunisian powerhouse ES Tunis on Friday at GEODIS Park, looking to stack points in Group D of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n After this test at Nashville SC<\/a>‘s home stadium, LAFC close out Group D action against Brazilian giant Flamengo on June 24.

The final is set for July 13 at MetLife Stadium.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n How they qualified:<\/strong> Play-in match winners<\/p>\n Drawn against English Premier League \u201cbig six\u201d side Chelsea, LAFC always faced an uphill climb in their Group D opener.<\/p>\n While the Black & lost 2-0<\/a> on Monday afternoon, they can take encouragement from the performance. Had Denis Bouanga<\/a> and David Mart\u00ednez<\/a> been sharper in front of goal, they might have even taken a point off the Blues.<\/p>\n Now, Steve Cherundolo\u2019s side will be favored against Tunis. Take care of business and they set up a decisive match against Flamengo next week where a Round-of-16 spot is likely up for grabs.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n How they qualified:<\/strong> Best-ranked eligible team in CAF four-year ranking<\/p>\n Tunis also suffered a 2-0 defeat<\/a> to begin their Club World Cup journey, with goals from Atlanta United<\/a> alum Luiz Ara\u00fajo and Giorgian de Arrascaeta handing Flamengo the victory Monday evening.<\/p>\n Looking to avoid another setback, Tunis will hope Algerian international Youcef Bela\u00efli can cause the Black & Gold defense trouble. Tunisian international goalkeeper Bechir Ben Sa\u00efd might need another big-time performance, too.<\/p>\n Recognizing their record 34 domestic titles, LAFC certainly won’t underestimate Tunis.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\nHow to watch & stream<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n
