Need to know How to watch Chelsea vs Real Sociedad - TV channel, live stream and kick-off time Xabi Alonso's next pre-season test with Chelsea will come against Real Sociedad this weekend How to watch Chelsea vs Real Sociedad: - TV channel and live stream: Fans in the UK can watch the Stamford Bridge fixture exclusively via live stream on Chelsea’s official content platform, CFC+, with kick-off set for Saturday at 2pm BST. You can either purchase a standalone match pass for £9.99 or opt for an annual subscription at £14.99 to access the live video feed. - Alternative coverage: Currently, there is no official live national radio broadcast scheduled in the UK for this particular pre-season friendly. However, fans will still be able to follow live text updates and periodic audio summaries directly through the official Chelsea app and website. - Head-to-head: Because they compete in different domestic leagues and rarely meet in European competitions, the head-to-head record between Chelsea and Real Sociedad is extremely limited. The two senior sides have only faced each other in non-competitive summer exhibition matches. - Last meeting: The last time these two teams clashed was a pre-season friendly in August 2014 at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea secured a comfortable 2-0 victory that day, courtesy of a quickfire early double from striker Diego Costa. - Pre-season form: Chelsea head into this fixture with mixed summer results, recently drawing 3-3 with Malaysian outfit Johor Darul Ta'zim and beating AC Milan 3-0 after narrow defeats to Juventus and Tottenham. Real Sociedad have also experienced an inconsistent pre-season, enduring consecutive 2-1 losses to Cologne and Toulouse following earlier victories over Aston Villa and Wolves.
