Manchester City have won four of their previous five FA Cup games v Chelsea, knocking them out in 2013 and 2014.

To be fair, up until last season, we had a good run of home games in this cup.

Fair enough but since 2011 we have been drawn against Chelsea three times and United twice. Admittedly two of those draws were semis.

We've gone out to Championship opposition at home in the last two seasons and our cup run a few years back where we got to the final was:
Watford(h) Stoke(a) Leeds(h) Barnsley(h) Chelsea(sf) and Wigan and we still didn't fucking win it!

As I said, it's the luck of the draw. You have to beat what's in front of you, and we've done it convincingly up to now. I'm not a believer in 'heated balls' etc. We've got a decent chance of turning them over.

It will be Tuesday .

Chelsea vs Manchester City might be on the Friday .

Yes Friday night would be most awkward for fans so most likely fixture

Arsenal have played only two ties away from home in 3 years. No wonder they do well in the comp.

It is the Emirates FA Cup... I'm sure they will have had a little word to make sure Arse go very far

We had easy draws in other years and got knocked out. Bit of a lottery this cup.

Agree. I'm more of a believer in sods law.
