Fans wishing to attend the training session should visit the Optus Stadium Facebook page to register their attendance.
And on match day there will be a special Chelsea FC Fan Zone set up outside Optus Stadium with a host of free activities on offer.
Fans will have the chance to have a photo with the FA Cup, test their skills with a target-shooting competition plus exclusive giveaways and more.
The open training session is part of a series of events and grassroots development activities the Chelsea Foundation coaches have been undertaking in Perth ahead of the match.
The Blues foundation coaches have been running clinics, including elite development and school groups and coach education sessions, culminating in an under-8 tournament on Sunday, 22 July.
