Preview: Chelsea v Manchester United
When and where can I watch it? The Emirates FA Cup quarter-final at Chelsea is being shown live in the UK on BBC One at 19:45 GMT on Monday.
MUTV subscribers can watch
Match Day Live, featuring exclusive interviews with Jose Mourinho and his players in the build-up and radio commentary during the game. The club’s official TV channel will show the full 90 minutes at various times from midday on Tuesday. Fans can also follow the action via ManUtd.com's live match blog and the club's official Twitter account @ManUtd.
Why is this tie different? There are no longer any replays at this last-eight stage of the competition, meaning we must have a winner on the night and extra-time and penalties are therefore possible. Also for the first time, each team can make a fourth substitution in the match if an additional period of 30 minutes is played.
Could the draw have been any harder for United? Probably not. The Blues are 10 points clear at the Premier League summit and, of course, beat the Reds 4-0 at Stamford Bridge back in October. Away to Chelsea was therefore, on paper, the toughest draw available and the game comes on the back of a tiring trip to Russia for Thursday's 1-1 draw with FC Rostov in the Europa League. However, Henrikh Mkhitaryan vows the tight schedule "doesn't bother" the squad. "We just have to get ready for that game. It's not going to be easy as everyone knows but we know how we're going to play and we're hoping for a good result."
History boys... United have never retained the FA Cup despite the club's proud record in the competition. Victory at Chelsea would set up another trip to Wembley, where the Reds have won four times in less than a year. The semi-finals will be held at the national stadium on the weekend of 22 and 23 April, with the draw to decide the fixtures taking place on Monday night after the match.
What's the form guide? Both teams are in good heart - it goes without saying that Chelsea are on a fabulous run. The Londoners have gone 10 games unbeaten in all competitions since losing a capital-city derby to Tottenham in their opening outing of 2017. Antonio Conte's side have lost only once on their home patch since the Italian took charge and that came back in September against Liverpool. United, meanwhile, have only suffered two defeats since that loss to the Blues in October; both reverses were on the road and by the same 2-1 scoreline, to Fenerbahce in the Europa League and Hull City in the EFL Cup semi-final second leg.
The boss is going back to his former club again... Much of the talk around the league game earlier this season surrounded Jose Mourinho's return to Stamford Bridge and it will, no doubt, be the subject of a lot of attention again. Juan Mata is also a former Chelsea player while Paul Pogba played under Blues boss Conte at Juventus.
What's the FA Cup record between the clubs? The sides have met 13 times in the competition with United winning eight times, drawing twice and losing on three occasions. The Reds won the 1994 final 4-0 but lost to a Didier Drogba goal at Wembley 13 years later, when a certain Mr Mourinho lifted the trophy with the West London club. Dwight Yorke scored twice in a replay at Stamford Bridge, en route to the Treble in 1999, but United's last tie at the ground ended in a 1-0 reverse in 2013. That clash was also a replay, after a 2-2 draw at Old Trafford, when Wayne Rooney and Eden Hazard, who could both be involved on Monday, were among the scorers.
The Blues have had a breather, haven't they? Well, they have certainly had more time to prepare for the fixture - a full week, after making a short trip across London to beat West Ham 2-1 in the Premier League's Monday-night game. United got back from Rostov in the early hours of Friday morning and will certainly be welcoming the fact the tie was pushed back from the weekend for live TV coverage.
Who are Chelsea's men in form? The aforementioned Hazard is a tricky customer and has been back to his best this term after failing to find much spark in 2015/16. Diego Costa is top scorer, with 17 goals in the Premier League alone, while midfield dynamo N'Golo Kante has been an unqualified success since arriving from Leicester City in the summer.
Is there any team news? The big story is that Zlatan Ibrahimovic is out as he starts his three-game ban, following the FA's decision to punish him for violent conduct for an altercation with Bournemouth's Tyrone Mings. Marcus Rashford is a natural choice to replace him in the no.9 role, although positional moves for Anthony Martial and Wayne Rooney are also among the options. Eric Bailly is available after serving his European suspension, while Luke Shaw could join Rooney in returning after missing the Russia trip. Chelsea have had very few injury problems to contend with all season, so don't be surprised if they report another completely clean bill of health.
The stakes are high... United will want to set the record straight after falling way short in the last visit to Stamford Bridge. Make no mistake, this will be a tough assignment but Mourinho is sure to have his men fired up and will have a plan to upset the hosts. Chelsea will feel they can take a huge step towards the Double with victory but the Reds are unlikely to be in any mood to lose grip of the trophy.
