BlueLion. 21,491 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Chelsea will travel to Australia at the conclusion of the season to play in a post-season friendly against Sydney F.C..An 8pm kick-off local time (11am BST) on Tuesday 2 June, the Blues will play at the 83,500 capacity ANZ Stadium against the side who are currently second in the A-League - just three points behind leaders Melbourne Victory. Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho said: ‘We are very pleased we are coming to Sydney at the end of our season, for the first time in more than 40 years, and we hope our Australian fans can come and watch us play'.The last time the Blues visited Australia was also in a post-season tour in 1974 where they played six matches, whilst a month-long stay in 1965 saw the then League Cup winners play a mammoth 11 games.Tickets go on sale on Wednesday 6 May and the game will be aired in the UK and Ireland exclusively on Chelsea TV.
