Predictions
Chelsea Football Club has officially confirmed that both the men’s and women’s teams will take part in the 2026 Sydney Super Cup, a major pre-season tournament set to take place across two weeks in July and August next year.
The announcement may feel early, given that the current campaign is not even halfway through. However, clubs across Europe must strategically plan their preseason many months in advance—sorting travel logistics, commercial commitments, and crucial match preparations.
For Chelsea’s squad, a proper summer break will be especially welcome. Last summer’s schedule was extremely demanding due to the expanded Club World Cup, where the Blues went all the way and lifted the trophy. That limited rest period has noticeably impacted player fitness this season.
Despite the intensity of the football calendar, the 2026 tour promises excitement for fans, particularly those outside the UK who rarely get the chance to watch the team live. Supporters in Sydney will be thrilled, as the Blues are set to travel to Australia for a high-profile set of fixtures.
Chelsea’s men’s team will face Tottenham Hotspur outside the UK for the first time in history, adding a unique twist to the rivalry. They will also play a match against Western Sydney Wanderers, giving local fans another opportunity to see the squad up close.
The women’s team will also participate in the tournament, highlighting the club’s growing global presence and commitment to promoting the women’s game worldwide.
The Sydney Super Cup is expected to draw large crowds and generate major attention, offering Chelsea a high-quality preseason environment ahead of the 2026/27 campaign.
