The Enzo Maresca era at Chelsea kicks off against Manchester City, signifying a crucial test as he replaces Pochettino on the competitive debut.
Chelsea's pre-season struggles, including a 4-2 defeat to Man City, highlight the significant patience required as Maresca implements his football philosophy.
In contrast to Chelsea's active transfer spending, Manchester City has maintained stability, acquiring only Savio, focusing on defending their championship under Guardiola.
Despite a tumultuous pre-season, Chelsea benefits from the return of injured players like Nkunku and Fofana, bolstering their squad heading into the season.
