Charlton Athletic will be aiming to pull off a famous upset against a struggling Premier League outfit, while Chelsea arrive determined to avoid an early exit as they begin their campaign in the world’s oldest cup competition.
The Addicks head into the tie after a 2–2 draw away at Blackburn Rovers last weekend. Nathan Jones’ side currently sit mid-table, though their recent form has been patchy, with just one victory from their last five league matches. A 1–1 draw with Coventry City on New Year’s Day further highlighted their inconsistency, but despite issues keeping clean sheets, Charlton’s strong scoring record at home makes them a potentially dangerous underdog in this knockout clash.
Chelsea, meanwhile, come into the fixture under pressure after a 2–1 defeat to Fulham on Wednesday night. Under the guidance of caretaker boss Calum McFarlane, the Blues were reduced to ten men for much of the contest following a red card for Marc Cucurella. That loss followed a hard-fought 1–1 draw with Manchester City at the Etihad, extending Chelsea’s winless run to four matches in all competitions.
The Blues' squad will be keen to impress their new boss, and stake their claim for a place under the new regime, whilst ensuring progression into the fourth round.
