Chelsea should be favored to win this game handily. The London club may have had a rough year with new ownership, but they’re still considered one of the best teams in the world. They’re loaded with talent and have hired new manager Mauricio Pochettino to right the ship this season.
But that’s not the story that will be on most viewers’ minds. Instead, the focus will be on Wrexham, who have become a darling of the sports world thanks to the hit TV show Welcome to Wrexham. The Welsh side owned by stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have already made huge strides since the two took over and now will look to shock everyone by taking down the Blues in North Carolina.

Chelsea vs Wrexham preview
Chelsea have been one of the most dominant clubs in the world over the past few decades. The Blues have won multiple English Premier League titles and even conquered Europe on more than one occasion. But new ownership came in last year, and with it came some growing pains. The club went through three managers in one season and finished 12th out of 20 in the Premier League — their lowest finish in nearly 30 years.
Wrexham, meanwhile, have suffered no such growing pains with their new owners. Since the Hollywood duo of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney took over the club, the successes have started rolling in. The club nearly secured promotion back into the English Football League in their first year as owners, and then finally succeeded in winning the English National League last year to secure their spot in the EFL League Two for the 2023-2024 season. They also had a Cinderella run in last season’s FA Cup that was cut short in a thrilling replay match against Sheffield Utd.
But despite trending up, securing a championship and stealing the hearts of many with a hit TV show, beating a Premier League club is going to be a tall order. While Reynolds and McElhenney have given the Welsh side a much-needed cash infusion, it pales in comparison to the money and talent Chelsea have behind it.
So will it be an expected beatdown by the Blues? Or will Wrexham pull out another Hollywood ending and win a shocking result? You’ll have to watch the Chelsea vs Wrexham live stream to find out.
