Match Analysis
Chelsea travel to Wrexham as strong favorites in this FA Cup tie. Wrexham have been in excellent form in the Championship, unbeaten in their last five, but face a major step up in class. Chelsea's attack has been prolific in the cup, and their away form is strong, averaging over 4 goals per game in the competition. Wrexham's defense has been solid at home, but they are likely to be tested to their limits. Expect Chelsea to control possession and create more chances, but Wrexham's recent scoring form suggests they could get on the scoresheet, especially with home support.
