Chelsea Lose 1-0 to Juventus for Second Straight Pre-Season Defeat

Chelsea Lose 1-0 to Juventus for Second Straight Pre-Season Defeat

Chelsea suffered a second straight pre-season defeat after losing 1-0 to Juventus on Wednesday. Edon Zhegrova scored the decisive goal in the 68th minute. Chelsea had previously lost 2-1 to Tottenham Hotspur, while Juventus extended their pre-season winning run to three matches without conceding. Danny Welbeck made his first appearance for Chelsea, while Mykhailo Mudryk returned to action as a late substitute after 20 months out. Chelsea will hope to strengthen key areas before the 2026-27 Premier League season begins.

Two straight pre-season losses is not ideal. What should Chelsea supporters be looking for most before the next match?

Are the results really the concern, or should fans focus more on whether the team looks organised before the season starts?

Juventus making it three pre-season wins while Chelsea lose again gives the result a little more weight, even if it is still pre-season.

I would not read too much into the scorelines yet. Pre-season defeats can matter less than how preparations develop over the full schedule.

Chelsea need to review the moments around Zhegrova's 68th-minute goal and use the remaining fixtures to build confidence.
