A resurgent Chelsea will be looking to book a place in their second domestic final of the season today when they face Man City in the FA Cup semi-finals.

The Blues will be hoping they can pile on the misery for City, who this week were knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid on penalties, and capitalise on their eight game unbeaten run. However, with recent setbacks for both Arsenal and Liverpool, Pep Guardiola's team now sits atop the Premier League, and will be hungry to capture the Premier League and FA Cup double.

Chelsea's recent run of form, where despite draws against Sheffield United and Burnley they are in good form and unbeaten since late February, is largely credited to former City player Cole Palmer who has unexpectedly emerged as a contender in the Golden Boot race, rivalling Erling Haaland. Palmer's stellar performance, including a four-goal haul against Everton, has propelled his season tally to an incredible 20 goals.

With a point to prove against his former club, the young English talent aims to make his mark in the upcoming clash as the Blues look to make amends for their loss in the League Cup final to Liverpool and make a statement in the FA Cup. With Chelsea looking to continue their unbeaten run and earn a place in the final let's take a look at all you need to know.
