They are 1.758/11 to win half-time/full-time.

This will be the first FA Cup meeting between these two sides since a third-round match in December 1999; Chelsea won 6-1 away from home - their joint-biggest away win in the competition and the only time they've scored six on the road in the competition. Over 2.5 goals is 1.584/7.
