Our development squad will conclude their home fixtures this evening when Blackburn visit Kingsmeadow. You can watch the game live on the 5th Stand app and this website.
Kick-off time and coverage
We get underway at 7pm in Kingston and coverage on the website and the 5th Stand app will begin shortly before kick-off. A full match report will be available on the website after the final whistle, with a summary on the app.
Last time out
Against Manchester United in our last outing it started well. Myles Peart-Harris opened the scoring on his return, but a sending-off for Lucas Bergstrom turned the game on its head. The hosts were ahead by half-time with a Shola Shoretire double and a further two second-half goals put the game to bed. Henry Lawrence scored late in injury time but it was only a consolation as we were defeated.
The opposition
Blackburn sit third in the table on 37 points, one more than we currently have, meaning a Chelsea win will leapfrog our opponents. Their last win was against Arsenal in March and they have struggled for consistent results since.
