So the clash with AC Milan in … [Read more...] about Chelsea Starting XI Prediction vs AC Milan (Club Friendly)

Chelsea Team News at Manchester City: Marc Cucurella, Jorrel Hato, Moises Caicedo
The first big match of 2026 is quite obvious- Chelsea at Manchester City. It's without a doubt the biggest headliner match of the first weekend in the new year.
