Match Facts |

With Crystal Palace waiting for them to reach the semi-finals at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, Chelsea are aiming to take the FA Cup one step further.
The two London clubs are vying for a chance to face either Liverpool or Manchester City at the Showpiece event, with the finalists' fate set to be decided 24 hours before this Capital Derby. Real Madrid have confirmed themselves as the reigning champions of the Champions League this season after being knocked out of the tournament by Paris Saint-Germain, but Carlo Ancelotti was on the verge of a humiliating defeat against his former club before a Frenchman came forward.
Thomas Touchel's side, who scored three goals against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, were forced to go to the volleyball home of Rodrigo on a beautiful ball from Luka Modric as they came close to becoming the first English team to win at least two goals on the Madrid turf. Before that, Karim Benzema went home to break the blue hearts once again. Their European title defense may be over, but Touchell's team dominated Real Madrid on their own patch and will advance to Sunday's semifinals as they try to reach the FA Cup final in their third season.
Chelsea were forced to win runners-up medals in 2020 and 2021, but they overtook Chesterfield, Plymouth Argyle, Luton Town and Middlesbrough to reach Wembley with only one clean sheet against their lower league opponents. Chelsea have not conceded a goal since losing to Liverpool in the EFL Cup final, and the Blues seem to have recovered from that temporary setback earlier this month, so a shot goes into the ninth FA Cup title. Their views, but Touchel's opponents know one or two things about winning a glorious match.
On May 21, 2005, Patrick Vieira last snatched the ball as an Arsenal player, and his spot kick led Arsenal to the FA Cup title at Manchester United - his fourth and final medal of the season. With gunmen. The 45-year-old Crystal Palace, who is now seeking his maiden honors as manager, has been in the spotlight for the past few weeks with strong performances - both Manchester City and Arsenal are well aware of the Eagles' power - but failed last weekend. Leicester City have shown that they are still a long way from the finished product.
Millwall, Hartpool United, Stoke City and Everton have all been knocked out of the FA Cup this season - having scored at least two goals in all of those games - but they are the only team left in the competition. Those who do not already have the FA Cup in their trophy cabinet. The Eagles went to Manchester United in the 1990 final, falling to the Red Devils once again in 2016, but recently put together an unbeaten streak of seven games before losing to Leicester - a superb run involving four games in a row. Clean the sheet against strong resistance.
Chelsea worked for their 1-0 win at Selhurst Park in February, but that narrow victory represents the Blues' ninth victory in the bounce in this match and they do not have the mentality to be victims of the next FA. Cup shock after their European heart attack.
Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Mendy; Azpilicueta, Silva, Rudiger; James, Kovacic, Kante, Alonso; Mount, Werner; Havertz
Crystal Palace possible starting lineup:
Guaita; Clyne, Andersen, Guehi, Mitchell; McArthur, Kouyate, Schlupp; Ayew, Mateta, Zaha
