Our prediction: Chelsea v Sheffield United
Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has eyes on silverware already and the FA Cup is a trophy the Blues have performed well in over recent years.
- For the latest news and expert tips on getting the best deals this year, take a look at our Black Friday 2021 and Cyber Monday 2021
Don’t be surprised if Tuchel treats this like a Premier League match and fields his strongest XI, especially with the international break coming up the following week.
United may well simply roll over here. A directionless side were pummelled by Leicester last time out and they don’t appear on the verge of upsetting one of the country’s most in-form teams.
Our prediction: Chelsea 3-0 Sheffield United (13/2 at bet365)
