FA Cup team news: Chelsea V Manchester United

13 March 2017 - 19:20

Manchester United travel to Chelsea in the FA Cup quarter final tonight, with both teams looking to fill the final spot in this year's semi finals. Arsenal, Manchester City and Tottenham have already secured their spots, in what is set to be a highly competitive climax to this season's competition. 

  • Arsenal handed major boost on Odegaard for Newcastle trip
  • Enzo Maresca explains why Cole Palmer didn't face Newcastle



  • The hosts start with a strong team, as Conte's men look to continue their fantastic season in the Premier League, by bringing the FA Cup to Stamford Bridge too. An attacking trio of Willian, Hazard and Diego Costa will be a real handful for the United defence. 

    Mourinho's team have been hit by a striker crisis in the build up to this one, however Marcus Rashford starts the game, despite suffering from illness yesterday. Former Chelsea man Juan Mata is available from the bench. 

    Here are the full lineups for the FA Cup quarter final between Chelsea and Manchester United:

    Chelsea: Courtois, Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Cahill, Moses, Kante, Matic, Alonso, Willian, Costa, Hazard

    Substitutes: Begovic, Terry, Zouma, Chalobah, Fabregas, Pedro, Batshuayi

    Manchester United: De Gea, Valencia, Jones, Smalling, Rojo, Darmian, Herrera, Pogba, Young, Mkhitaryan, Rashford

    Substitutes: Romero, Bailly, Blind, Carrick, Fellaini, Lingard, Mata
