The draw takes place today in Miami, Florida
Chelsea and Manchester City will today discover their Club World Cup group stage opponents.
The pair will be the Premier League representatives in the revamped tournament, which takes place next summer, as a result of winning the Champions League in 2021 and 2023, respectively.
Though, due to FIFA's rules and regulations for the Club World Cup draw, City and Chelsea - in Pot 1 and 2 respectively - have been kept apart in the group stage.
However, whilst the defending champions will face a fellow European side, Enzo Maresca's side will be paired with either Flamengo, Palmeiras, River Plate or Fluminense from Pot One.
Meanwhile, both Premier League sides can be paired with Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami from Pot Four so a reunion with Pep Guardiola is potentially on the cards for the Argentinian superstar.
With that said, here’s everything you need to know about how to watch the draw.
TV channel and live stream: The full draw will be broadcast for free across FIFA's channels, including the website and YouTube channel, and FIFA+, FIFA's streaming service, and DAZN.
