Chelsea begin their 2026/27 preseason slate as they travel to Australia to take on Western Sydney Wanderers on Tuesday.
The Blues have fan favorite Cole Palmer in tow, as the England star was shockingly left out of the World Cup roster, but Chelsea's participants at the FIFA tournament this summer, including finalist Enzo Fernandez, have not yet linked up with the squad for the preseason trip.
Chelsea are hoping to begin a season which marks a return to prominence, following a disappointing campaign last year which saw the Blues finish a disappointing 10th in the Premier League table.
Here's everything you need to know to watch the Chelsea vs. Wanderers friendly match, including where to watch on TV or live stream, what time the game starts and more.
