PREVIEW | Chester vs Sheffield Wednesday
Game two of pre-season sees the Blues welcome fans back to the Deva, as we host EFL side Sheffield Wednesday.
Bern and Jonno’s side kicked off pre-season with a 6-0 win at Elton Vale last Saturday. This has been followed by a hugely successful training camp this week at the University of Bangor.
💙 #ChesterFC would like to thank everyone at @BangorSport for hosting the #Blues' pre-season training camp.
We've had a fantastic week in North Wales and look forward to returning soon. 😃

They now return ready for two games this weekend, starting with the three-time FA Cup winners. Darren Moore’s men concluded a 10-day training camp in Wales with a 3-1 defeat to Celtic in midweek.
The Owls are planning for life in League One this term after a final day relegation from the Championship in May.
We are all set to welcome back a restricted attendance to the Deva for this match, the first since December. A Blues XI then go to Clitheroe on Sunday for a midday kick off – before taking on Bury AFC on the 17th back down CH1.
