U18s preview: Arsenal v Chelsea | Pre-Match Report | News

2024-08-23 19:50:02

Our young Gunners will aim for back-to-back London derby victories as we host Chelsea on Saturday, 24th August at the Sobha Realty Training Centre. The action kicks off at 11am (UK time).

We’re heading into this match full of confidence after a thrilling 3-2 away win over West Ham United last week in our season opener. It was a debut to remember for Ceadach O’Neill, who hit the ground running with two goals. Andre Annous also made a significant impact, scoring once and assisting both of O’Neill’s goals.

Opponent Spotlight

Last season, Chelsea claimed the U18s Premier League South title with 54 points, although they narrowly missed out in the National Final, losing 2-1 to Manchester United. The Blues will be eager to bounce back after a tough start to this season, losing their opening match 5-2 to Brighton & Hove Albion last week.

Our most recent encounter with Chelsea was on the final day of last season, where we secured an impressive 5-2 victory.

How to Follow

We’ll provide live updates throughout the game on our academy X page, and a full match report will be published on Arsenal.com after the final whistle.

Post-match, we’ll share interviews with Jack Wilshere and one of his young Gunners, as well as highlights of all the action.
