Chelsea FC vs Southampton: Prediction, kick off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results today

Southampton are next up as Chelsea look to add to their trophy cabinet with a run in the Carabao Cup.

The Blues lifted the Champions League only months into Thomas Tuchel’s tenure at the end of last season and while a tilt at the Premier League title remains the priority for the early table toppers, this competition has proved a springboard to greater success on numerous occasions.

Chelsea were beaten finalists back in 2019 but Manchester City’s recent dominance of the competition means they have not lifted the trophy since beating Tottenham in 2015.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Chelsea vs Southampton is scheduled for a 7:45pm BST kick-off on Tuesday, October 25, 2021.
