“Chelsea vs Wrexham: Kickoff Time, Head-to-Head, Team News, and Date Revealed”
Chelsea and Wrexham are scheduled to play a friendly match on July 19, 2023 at Kenan Memorial Stadium in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The match is part of Chelsea’s pre-season tour of the USA.
In his debut as Chelsea manager, Mauricio Pochettino is set to lead the team on Wednesday as they face Wrexham, a newly promoted side from League Two, in a preseason match taking place in the United States.
Pochettino’s appointment comes in the aftermath of a turbulent 2022-23 season for the Blues, during which the club went through three different managers.
Unfortunately, Chelsea will be missing the services of defender Wesley Fofana, who is anticipated to be sidelined for an extended period. Additionally, Reece James, Benoit Badiashille, and Armando Broja did not accompany the team on their trip to the U.S.

Chelsea vs Wrexham Prediction.
Here is a prediction for the match:
Chelsea to win 4-1
Wrexham News
Wrexham are a good team, but they are no match for Chelsea. The Blues should be able to win comfortably, with Timo Werner and Kai Havertz scoring goals.
As for whether Wrexham could ever get to the Premier League, it is possible, but it would be a very long and difficult road. They would need to win promotion from League Two, League One, and the Championship in consecutive seasons. It is something that has only been achieved by a handful of teams in the past.
However, Wrexham have a new owner in Ryan Reynolds, who is a big fan of the club. He has invested heavily in the team and has ambitious plans for the future. So, while it may be a long shot, it is not impossible that Wrexham could one day play in the Premier League.
