Chelsea Football Club bid to restore themselves among the Premier League elite begins with the release of their 2026/27 fixture list, marking the start of a new era under Xabi Alonso.
After a disappointing campaign that fell well below expectations, the Blues will be hoping a fresh voice in the dugout can inspire an immediate turnaround.
Alonso arrives at Stamford Bridge with a growing reputation as one of Europe’s brightest young coaches, and supporters will be eager to see how quickly he can reshape a talented but inconsistent squad.
The early run of fixtures could prove crucial as Chelsea look to build confidence and establish momentum under their new manager. With pressure mounting to return to the top end of the table, every result will come under close scrutiny from the opening weekend.
Chelsea’s 38-game schedule offers the opportunity to leave last season’s struggles behind and begin a new chapter with renewed belief and ambition.
