Our Under-21s will begin the new campaign with two home fixtures against Blackburn Rovers and Brighton.
Following last season's third-place finish, our Under-21s will be looking to start the season in good fashion against the young Rovers in what is a Premier League 2 competition with a new format and just one division.
Last season, Chelsea played Wolves away from home in our season opener and we took all three points with an emphatic 7-1 win.
This season's first game will be held at Kingsmeadow on Friday 11 August with kick-off scheduled for 7pm.
The full fixture list is outlined below. Fixture dates and venues are subject to change and you will be duly notified if there are any changes.
