Is Chelsea vs Noah on TV tonight? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Conference League fixture
Chelsea continue their Conference League campaign on Thursday evening as they welcome FC Noah to Stamford Bridge.
The Blues face the Armenian side off the back of a solid result against Manchester United last week, and they currently sit fourth in Premier League while leading the Conference League table after their first two matches.
Enzo Maresca has the privilege of being allowed to rest much of his first team in the competition, with players such as Cole Palmer, Wesley Fofana and Romeo Lavia not even named in the squad for the league phase games.
So expect plenty of changes at Stamford Bridge – s has been in the case in their first two games – with bench players such as Christopher Nkunku, Joao Felix and Mykhailo Mudryk given the chance to shine.
Below is everything you need to know about tonight’s game:
When is the game?
Chelsea host Noah at 8pm GMT on Thursday 7 November at Stamford Bridge, London.

What is the team news?
Chelsea are waiting to see the extent of the pain suffered by Cole Palmer after that late challenge from Lisandro Martinez on Sunday, but in any case, the England man has not been registered for this stage of the competition (alongside Fofana and Lavia).
In goal, Filip Jörgensen will likely get another chance, while Axel Disasi, Benoit Badiashile and Renato Veiga will likely get a starting berth in defence.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Enzo Fernandez will likely anchor midfield as they did against Panathinaikos, with the trio of Nkunku, Felix and Mudryk trusted in attack as they look to play themselves into Maresca’s thinking for the game against Arsenal.
Predicted lineups
Chelsea XI: Jorgensen; Disasi, Badiashile, Veiga, Gusto; Dewsbury-Hall, Fernandez; Neto, Mudryk; Nkunku, Felix.
Noah XI: Cancarevic; Mendoza, Silva, Muradyan, Thórarinsson; Eteki, Sangare; Ferreira, Omar, Pinson; Aias.

Chelsea 1/22
