Chelsea v AC Milan Match Day Tickets
We’re delighted to announce two pre-season matches at Emirates Stadium as part of our preparations for the 2025/26 campaign.
On Saturday, August 9 at 5pm UK time, our men’s first team will play Spanish side Athletic Club in this year’s Emirates Cup.
That fixture comes after the visit of another La Liga side to N5, when we host Villarreal on Wednesday, August 6, with the match kicking off at 6pm UK time.
Meanwhile, across London, a truly iconic pre-season clash awaits as Chelsea welcome Italian giants AC Milan to Stamford Bridge on Sunday, August 10th, with a 3:00 PM BST kick-off.
This fixture is a cornerstone of Chelsea's "VisitMalta Weekender," promising a captivating encounter between two clubs steeped in European history. Chelsea will be looking to fine-tune their squad and tactical approach under Enzo Maresca, building momentum following their participation in the FIFA Club World Cup and prior to the Premier League season kick-off. Fans will be eager to see their beloved Blues back at Stamford Bridge, potentially catching a glimpse of new signings and returning stars.
AC Milan, under the returning leadership of Massimiliano Allegri, will arrive in London as a formidable test for the West London side. Fresh from their own extensive pre-season preparations and an Asia-Pacific tour, the Rossoneri will be aiming to showcase their quality and put on a strong display against a top English opponent. Their blend of technical skill and tactical discipline will provide a challenging warm-up for Chelsea.
Historically, matches between Chelsea and AC Milan have delivered drama and memorable moments. This friendly offers a perfect opportunity for both sets of supporters to see their teams in action ahead of a demanding 2025/26 campaign. The atmosphere at Stamford Bridge is set to be electric as these two European heavyweights renew acquaintances.
