Chelsea fixtures 2019/20 in full: Key dates and match schedule for coming season

Last season, Chelsea won their opening five games in the Premier League under Maurizio Sarri.

While Sarri is unlikely to be at the helm this time around, with speculation over his future still swirling, the Blues will be hoping for another positive start to the season.

They are a club with complications off the pitch, with a transfer ban looming for the next two windows along with the loss of star player, Eden Hazard, to Spanish giants Real Madrid.

Add in long term injuries to Reuben Loftus-Cheek, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Reece James and there may be a dent in optimism for the upcoming season.

But fans can find peace of mind in Christian Pulisic, who is set to make his debut at the start of the season, with expectations high for the former Borussia Dortmund winger at Stamford Bridge.
