Chelsea finished the 2023-2024 season in 6th place, a respectable finish but just out of reach of the Europa League group stage nonetheless. They’ll get a fresh start on August 17th, when the 2024-2025 season gets underway. Even if you’re in The States, you can cheer for The Blues with the best of them.

Streaming Chelsea games is easier in the US now that the club is shown on Peacock and NBC channels. If you plan ahead, you can keep up with every game this season.
