Chelsea faces the final stretch of the season with a single objective: to get a place in the Conference League. After today’s match against Brighton, Pochettino’s team will have only one match left, which will take place next Sunday, May 19 at 5:00 p.m. at Stamford Bridge against Bournemouth.
A crucial ending for the Conference League
Chelsea’s last rival in the Premier League will be Bournemouth. A crucial match for the European aspirations of the ‘Blues’, who are in a tough battle with Newcastle and Manchester United for sixth position, the only one that gives access to the Conference League.
Despite an irregular start to the season, Chelsea has managed to right the course in recent days and reaches the final stretch with a good feeling. The team has won three consecutive victories and has shown improvement in its game, which allows it to have hopes of reaching the Conference League.
Start of preseason
Regardless of the result of the match against Bournemouth, Chelsea are already thinking about next season. The pre-season will begin on July 24 with a friendly against Wrexham AFC. A new season in which the ‘blues’ hope to once again be protagonists in English and European football.
In short, Chelsea faces a vibrant end to the season in which their future in Europe will be decided. The team will have to give its best to overtake Bournemouth and achieve sixth position in the Premier League. A goal that would allow them to compete in the Conference League next season.
