Chelsea vs Celtic Team Overview
Chelsea
Enzo Maresca continues his preparations ahead of the 2024-25 season this weekend, as his Chelsea side will be in pre-season action in the United States. The Blues enjoyed a solid end to the previous season, but the departure of Mauricio Pochettino has dampened expectations ahead of the coming season in the Premier League.
They have already brought in some young stars ahead of this tour of the U.S., with Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Tosin Adarabioyo both part of the travelling party. Chelsea will open their pre-season campaign against Wrexham in California on Wednesday before coming up against Club America, Man City, and Real Madrid before a final home match before the start of the season against Inter Milan.
Celtic
Brendan Rodgers will be hoping that his side can continue their good form ahead of the start of their SPL defence on Saturday after previously winning two of their three matches already in pre-season. The Scottish champions put in an excellent display last weekend after blowing away D.C. United to claim a 4-0 success in the U.S. capital.
It hasn’t been the most productive summer off the field to this point, as the Hoops have made just two signings, with goalkeepers Vijami Sinisalo and Kasper Schmeichel joining the club. The latter could be in line to make a first start this weekend.

The fact that Chelsea will be playing their first match of pre-season shouldn’t be overlooked before making a Chelsea vs Celtic prediction this weekend.
The Hoops have match fitness on their side, and they have looked excellent in the final third across their last two friendlies. For that reason, it could be worth taking a chance on the draw in Indiana this weekend.
Chelsea vs Celtic Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Christopher Nkunku To Score
It was a disappointing first season in English football for Christopher Nkunku, as injuries derailed his 2023-24 campaign. However, he will be expected to hit the ground running in pre-season for the Blues this summer, and he may be a standout selection when making a Chelsea vs Celtic prediction to find the net in Indiana on Saturday evening.
