When is Chelsea Legends vs Liverpool legends? Kick-off time, full squad and TV channel

Liverpool Legends will take on Chelsea Legends at Stamford Bridge this weekend looking to beat the Blues for a second time this year, after winning 2-0 at Anfield in March.

The likes of Sander Westerveld, Fabio Aurelio, Martin Skrtel, Ragnar Klavan, Mark Gonzalez, Jay Spearing, Gregory Vignal, Igor Biscan, Florent Sinama-Pongolle, and Natasha Dowie are all returning to play again having done so in the previous edition of the fixture.

Peter Crouch scored a brace in the last fixture and Liverpool won 2-0, but he has not been announced as playing here. There are some new faces among the Reds' ranks, however.

Last month, it was confirmed that Pepe Reina will make his first appearance for the Liverpool Legends after he retired from playing in the summer at the age of 42.

Stephane Henchoz, meanwhile, has also been signed up to face Chelsea, and Martin Kelly has confirmed his retirement, which makes him eligible to take part.

"I’ve never actually got around to writing the social media post to announce it; I’ve only told friends and family, but yeah, I’ve retired," Kelly told The Athletic.

"It was March when I sat down with the family and told them I was thinking about it. Around the same time, I got asked to play for Liverpool in a legends game against Chelsea. One of the stipulations was that you had to be retired, so that just reaffirmed my decision."

The match will kick off at 3pm UK time (12pm ET) on Saturday.

It is not being broadcast on TV, however, fans can watch the action live on Chelsea's official website and the official Chelsea app. Subscribers to Liverpool's LFCTV GO platform will also be eligible to stream the clash live as part of their subscription.
