Mata wary of Corinthians

Chelsea midfielder Juan Mata is looking forward to playing Corinthians in the Club World Cup final but knows it won't be easy to beat the Brazilian side.

Mata was on the scoresheet as last season's Champions League winners eased to a comfortable 3-1 victory against Mexican side Monterrey in the semi-finals in Japan. The Spaniard opened the scoring in the 17th minute before his second-half cross was turned into his own net by Monterrey's Darvin Chavez for Chelsea’s third goal. Mata said afterwards: "We want to win this trophy and to be world champions. I'm very happy with the goal and the result. We started really well, we were focused on scoring more goals and we did. "We have confidence but we know that Corinthians are one of the best teams in Brazil and they have lots of supporters here so it won't be easy." Chelsea are 5/6 with bet365 to win Sunday's final while Corinthians can be backed at 10/1 to secure a 1-0 victory against the Blues.
