Chelsea v Port Vale: FA Cup quarter-final – live
Key events
Right, time for some team news…
Manchester City sailed through to the semi-finals with a huge 4-0 win over Liverpool earlier today. Erling Haaland scored a hat-trick to send his team through, with Antoine Semenyo getting on the scoresheet as well. Goalkeeper James Trafford also played a huge part by saving a penalty from Mohamed Salah in the second half.
Preamble
Hello, good afternoon and welcome to coverage of the FA Cup quarter-final clash between Chelsea and Port Vale. Wembley Stadium is within touching distance for both clubs this afternoon, with just 90 minutes (or 120 depending on how this plays out) between them and a day at the home of English football.
Premier League giants Chelsea are the overwhelming favourites for this one, with Port Vale struggling at the bottom of League One. However, the third-tier side stunned Sunderland to get here, so you can’t write them off.
Given Chelsea’s recent run of results, Port Vale will be hopeful of a huge upset at Stamford Bridge.
Kick-off for this one is at 5:15pm BST – join me!
