What an awful mid-week result for Chelsea FC. Leeds United came into yesterday's match wallowing in the relegation zone. Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Blues put them squarely in the safety zone. While that was extremely disappointing for Chelsea, at least they can already move on to the next match already, which is a trip to AFC Bournemouth. … [Read more...] about Chelsea Team News, Predicted Starting XI, Match Preview at Bournemouth

Chelsea vs Barcelona Team News: Reece James, Wesley Fofana, Cole Palmer, Marcus Rashford, Pedri
FC Barcelona at Chelsea FC is the standout fixture of Tuesday night's UEFA Champions League slate, no doubt about it. It's also a match with a pretty extensive injury/fitness concern list, so let's get straight into it, starting with Reece James. The oft-injured Chelsea captain left the 2-0 win over Burnley FC early yesterday, igniting injury concerns. That's understandable, … [Read more...] about Chelsea vs Barcelona Team News: Reece James, Wesley Fofana, Cole Palmer, Marcus Rashford, Pedri
Chelsea Injury Updates: Cole Palmer, Reece James, Enzo Fernandez, Benoit Badiashile
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca met the media today, and he provided a ton of updates on the squad's injury/fitness situation. Some of it is not so good, and we'll start with the bad news first, in Cole Palmer. Maresca had said, prior to this past international break that Cole Palmer would return to action once the October internationals were over. Well, so much for that, as … [Read more...] about Chelsea Injury Updates: Cole Palmer, Reece James, Enzo Fernandez, Benoit Badiashile

Chelsea FC Starting XI Prediction vs Liverpool
There is no doubt what headliner fixture of the Premier League weekend is- Liverpool at Chelsea. The Reds will head into southwest London as slight favorites, and that's very understandable, given how Chelsea has been slumping lately. The Blues currently sit eighth in the table, and given all their resources, and transfer spending- that is simply unacceptable. A win here, … [Read more...] about Chelsea FC Starting XI Prediction vs Liverpool
Chelsea FC Starting XI Prediction vs Brighton & Hove Albion
Chelsea FC did exactly what they were supposed to do yesterday, take care of business against a third tier side in the League Cup. Maybe the 2-1 score line versus Lincoln City wasn't as lopsided as you might think it should be, when a League One team hosts one of the world's biggest financial powerhouses, but the W is all that matters and Chelsea are now moving on to 4th round … [Read more...] about Chelsea FC Starting XI Prediction vs Brighton & Hove Albion
Chelsea Starting XI Prediction at Manchester United
Ouch! That was absolutely not the way that Chelsea FC wanted to start their UEFA Champions League campaign. Bayern beat them 3-1 as Harry Kane bagged a brace, one goal from the spot, the other from open play. Enzo Maresca has work to do, as Chelsea may be a very strong squad (they did win the FIFA Club World Cup after all, but they are not quite among the world's elitist of the … [Read more...] about Chelsea Starting XI Prediction at Manchester United
Chelsea Starting Lineup Prediction at Brentford FC
The international break is over and Chelsea FC are ready to get back at it with a London derby at Brentford FC. Enzo Maresca's side visit the Bees for a strangely late kickoff time. An 8pm on a Saturday is rare, but in this day and age, where television dominates anything and everything in sports, we should all come to expect things like this to happen more and more. … [Read more...] about Chelsea Starting Lineup Prediction at Brentford FC
