Get ready for a massive showdown at Wembley, Blues fans. In mid July, Chelsea, fresh off its 1-0 win over Leicester City on Sunday, has booked its trip to the FA Cup semifinals.
The draw just took place moments ago, and Frank Lampard's boys will be taking on Manchester United on either July 18 or July 19 in the semis.

The two clubs have met three times already this season, with Manchester United winning all three matches. They faced off in the Carabao Cup, plus two Premier League games.
Now, Chelsea will look to avoid going 4-0 against Manchester United on the campaign. They will have the confidence of beating United in the FA Cup Final back in 2018. That game ended with the Blues raising the cup following a 1-0 victory.
Chelsea booked its trip to the semifinals with a strong 1-0 win over Leicester City in the quarterfinals, thanks to a great goal from Ross Barkley. United took down Norwich 2-1 to set up this exciting matchup. Who will come out on top? We can't wait for the two clubs to square off at Wembley.
