There are no fewer than four matches against London opposition for Blues teams this week, including the return to action of Chelsea Women. Here’s a closer look at the next seven days…

Monday

We began the week by continuing to look back on our excellent 1-1 draw away to Manchester City, with reaction from Trevoh Chalobah and Calum McFarlane among others.

Tuesday

We will begin our build-up to the trip to Fulham with all the stats and facts you need to know ahead of the game, and there will be live coverage of McFarlane's pre-match media conference on the Chelsea Official App and website. That gets underway at 12 noon.

Wednesday

Kick-off at Craven Cottage is at 7.30pm and you can follow all the action as it unfolds on the Chelsea Official App and website, with live commentary and match updates and reaction. Sky Sports are broadcasting the game live, with highlights on our channels from 11.30pm.


Also on Wednesday, our Under-21s return to action after their winter break. They host Benfica at Kingsmeadow in a Premier League International Cup fixture. We will be streaming the game, which starts at 7pm, live on the Chelsea Official app and website.

As our women’s training camp in Portugal draws to a close, we will be publishing the first part of an exclusive interview with Sonia Bompastor.

Thursday

We will bring you all the reaction to events at Craven Cottage on Thursday, as well as the second part of our exclusive chat with Bompastor.

It’s a busy Friday down at Cobham. There will be two press conferences - to preview our FA Cup third round tie at Charlton and Chelsea Women’s WSL game against West Ham – as well as an Under-18s fixture at home to Birmingham. That starts at 1pm.

Saturday

A double matchday on Saturday begins at 1pm at Cobham when our Under-21s host Crystal Palace.

Then in the evening, we head to the Valley to play Charlton Athletic for the first time since the 2006/07 season.

The start of our FA Cup campaign kicks off at 8pm in the UK, with the Chelsea Official App and website offering live commentary and all the usual coverage before, during and after the third round tie.
