Team News
Wrexham will have their full squad at their disposal as they face the London club. There are currently no injuries, which means Parkinson can play his strongest side in his first tour game.
As for Chelsea, the big news breaking today was that Wesley Fofana has ruptured his ACL. He won’t play for a while, which is a shame for the injury-stricken star. They’ll likely play a strong squad, full of dazzling youth. Expect Enzo Fernandez, Mykhailo Mudryk and new boy Malo Gusto to all appear.
Prediction
We’ve been so used to seeing our club batter teams week in week out… but now this is Premier League opposition.
Chelsea have some of the best young players in world football and they’ll be desperate to impress under new coach Mauricio Pochettino.
We think we’ll nick one, but ultimately Chelsea will prevail in the States.
- Prediction: Wrexham 1 – 4 Chelsea
