Last season was a memorable one for Harry Hudson and his Under-21s squad, as the young Blues secured the Premier League 2 title after finishing top of the regular-season table with 14 victories from 20 league matches.

Looking to build on that success, preparations for the new campaign are well under way, with the Under-21s now knowing their schedule for the season ahead.

Chelsea will once again play all home fixtures at Kingsmeadow Stadium. The young Blues begin our campaign away against Bournemouth at the Wyatt Homes Stadium on Friday 21 August, with kick-off at 7pm, before facing West Ham United in our second league outing at Kingsmeadow at 1pm on Monday 31 August.

Our final fixture before the Christmas break comes against Leicester City at the Seagrave Training Ground on Monday 21 December, with kick-off at 7pm.

The Under-21s return to league action in the new year against Sunderland, before concluding the regular season against Middlesbrough at Heritage Park at midday on Sunday 21 March.
