European football and a huge domestic test for Chelsea Women headline the week ahead, while the men's team enter the final international break of 2026.

Sonia Bompastor's side have two important fixtures to look forward to, beginning with a trip to Sweden in the Champions League before welcoming Manchester City to Stamford Bridge in the WSL.

There will also be plenty to follow away from club football, with several Chelsea players representing their countries. Here are just some of the highlights to look out for across the next seven days…

Monday

We begin the week by reflecting on our defeat to Sunderland, with post-match words from Xabi Alonso and Mike Penders as well as a full replay of the game.

Attention will then turn towards Chelsea Women’s trip to play Hacken, starting with the first 15 minutes of their training session being broadcast live on the Chelsea Official App and website. Coverage will start at 10.45am.

Later in the day, Bompastor and one of her players will be answering the media’s questions in Gothenburg. That press conference, at 6.45pm UK time, will also be shown live on our channels.

We will also bring you news of which of our men’s players will be on international duty this window.

Tuesday

Chelsea Women take on Hacken at the Hisingen Arena for a 5.45pm kick-off. We are searching for our third win in the competition this season, and Nathalie Bjorn will be previewing the fixture in her homeland in an exclusive interview.

We will bring supporters all the latest team news and build-up ahead of the game, with live coverage, updates and reaction available on the Chelsea Official App and website.

Wednesday

We’ll have further reaction and analysis from the game in Sweden, as well as the best of the action.

There will be an exclusive interview with Romeo Lavia, so impressive in recent weeks, discussing his footballing firsts.

Thursday

The first of our international round-ups will include news of England’s game against Croatia at Wembley. Belgium and France are also in action.

For Chelsea Women, the focus will firmly shift towards the weekend meeting with title rivals Manchester City. It is undoubtedly one of the standout fixtures in the WSL calendar, and we will carry words from several of our players about what having Stamford Bridge as our permanent home has been like.

Friday

Bompastor will face the media to preview that game on Friday afternoon, and we will bring you the key talking points from her press conference, including the latest team news.

Captain Erin Cuthbert also speaks exclusively to us ahead of the big match as we seek to reclaim top spot in the table.

Saturday

Kick-off at the Bridge is at 1.30pm - with tickets still available to buy – and our final preview beforehand is with Kadeisha Buchanan.

The match will be broadcast live on BBC One in the UK, while supporters can follow all the build-up, confirmed team news, minute-by-minute updates and reaction in our Chelsea Women vs Manchester City Match Centre.

We will also bring supporters the best of the action after the final whistle, including a match report, highlights and reaction from Bompastor and her players.

Sunday

As well as further reaction to the Manchester City game, we round off the week with further international action involving our men's players. England travel to Madrid to take on Spain in their second UEFA Nations League fixture of the November window, with Morgan Rogers hoping to feature for the Three Lions.

We will also have a long read on the 30th anniversary of the signing of the great Gianfranco Zola.
