Home tie in FA Cup
Mon 29 Jan 2018
Chelsea will play at home against Hull City in the fifth round of this
season's FA Cup.
The Blues were paired with the Championship side when the draw was made on
Monday evening. Ruud Gullit, who won the FA Cup as Chelsea manager in
1997, was one of those drawing the balls. So far we have beaten Norwich
City and Newcastle United in the competition this campaign.
We have been paired with Hull six times previously in the competition and
have emerged victorious on each occasion, three of the ties needing a
replay. The most recent FA Cup meeting was back in 1999 when the third
round games were played in December. Gustavo Poyet scored a hat-trick in a
6-1 win on Humberside. The Blues went on to lift the trophy.
The fifth-round ties will take place across the weekend of 16-17-18-19
February with the exact date and time to follow.
The full draw is:
Sheffield Wednesday v Notts County or Swansea City
West Bromwich Albion v Southampton
Chelsea v Hull City
Leicester City v Sheffield United
Huddersfield Town or Birmingham City v Manchester United
Millwall or Rochdale v Newport County or Tottenham Hotspur
Brighton and Hove Albion v Coventry City
Wigan Athletic v Manchester City
