‘Need Real Competition To Verify We Are Ready’: Maresca On Chelsea’s PL Opener Vs Crystal Palace
Club World Cup: Chelsea’s Enzo Maresca believes his side is ready but will wait to see them perform against Crystal Palace as it marks the return of competitive football.
The world champions return to competitive action on Sunday following a tiresome pre-season. Maresca has had fewer than two weeks to work with his squad at Cobham following their successful Club World Cup campaign, but their performances in friendly victories over Bayer Leverkusen and AC Milan were impressive.
Palace, who last season won the FA Cup and defeated Liverpool on penalties to claim the Community Shield last weekend, will likely prove a sterner test.
