Chelsea will take on Manchester United at home in the fifth round of the FA Cup, it has been confirmed.
The Blues have been in strong form in the competition so far this season and will be desperate to advance to the quarter-finals against their Premier League counterparts.
Maurizio Sarri’s men defeated Nottingham Forest in the third round of the competition with a 2-0 win and were similarly comprehensive in the subsequent round.
Chelsea hosted Sheffield Wednesday at Stamford Bridge and eased to a 3-0 victory courtesy of a brace from Willian and a strike from promising youngster Callum Hudson-Odoi.
The ties for the fifth round of the FA Cup are set to take place midway through February, with the Blues out to retain their title for the second straight season.
Manchester United are, however, unbeaten under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and will be desperate to get their hands on some silverware after a difficult campaign so far.
