Chelsea vs Johor Darul Ta'zim LIVE
The Blues conclude their pre-season tour of Australia and Asia by facing a Malaysia Super League side in their home nation. The match comes just 24 hours after Chelsea comfortably beat AC Milan in Indonesia, so Xabi Alonso is expected to make sweeping changes to his starting line-up to give every player in his squad the chance to impress and build up fitness.
The means we are unlikely to see the likes of Cole Palmer or Joao Pedro - fresh from his two goals against AC Milan - line up today at the Sultan Ibrahim Stadium in Johor, but there should still be plenty of star names on show, such as Jamie Gittens and younger talents like Dastan Satpayev and Reggie Walsh.
This is the penultimate game of Chelsea’s pre-season, with a clash with Real Sociedad to come next weekend before the new Premier League season starts, as Alonso finalises his plans for the campaign. Follow the game LIVE below with our dedicated match blog, featuring expert insight and analysis.
