2026 - 70: The FA Cup Quarter-Final: Chelsea v Port Vale

All the action from the quarter-final at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea are yet to play a Premier League team in this season's competition and after making short work of Charlton Athletic and Hull City, they were taken to extra time by Wrexham before eventually prevailing 4-2. Vale have struggled in League One this term, but this is their first appearance in this stage of the cup since they reached the semi-finals in the 1953/54 season, and they have already taken the scalp of one top-flight side, beating Sunderland 1-0 at home in the previous round.
