Two of the Premier League's biggest sides meet in this FA Cup semi-final at Wembley. Don't miss a moment with our Chelsea vs Man City live stream guide.
This season's FA Cup is approaching its crescendo finish but May's finalists are not yet decided. Today, two of the favorites to win the competition meet in the capital as both Chelsea and Man City travel to Wembley for this semi-final clash.
Only Arsenal and Manchester United have won more FA Cup titles than Chelsea. The Pensioners were defeated in last year's final by London rivals Arsenal and last lifted the trophy in 2018. New Chelsea manager will be hoping to progress to his first cup final as Blues boss and add to Chelsea's trophy cabinet.
Man City, on the other hand, are hunting down another domestic treble à la their 2018-19 season. The Citizens hold a healthy lead at the top of the Premier League table and are set to take part in the re-arranged EFL Cup final in April.
On top of all that, the Sky Blues remain in the UEFA Champions League after a spirited comeback in the second half of their quarter-final second leg game with Borussia Dortmund earned them a semi-final tie with last year's finalists PSG.
Chelsea are also through to the final-four stage of the Champions League after seeing off Porto. They'll face the tournament's most successful side, and current La Liga titleholders, Real Madrid in the next round.
It's all to play for in this FA Cup semi-final clash. A final date with either Leicester City or Southampton awaits the victors. Read on for full details on how to get a live stream of the game between Chelsea and Man City with our guide below.
