Chelsea face Manchester City in FA Cup third round clash
Blues looking to end poor run against Citizens
Cole Palmer scores penalty to give Chelsea lead
Chelsea will be looking to end their poor run of form against Manchester City when the two sides meet in the FA Cup third round on Sunday.
The Blues have been eliminated from five of their last seven FA Cup ties against City, including in the third round last season.
However, Chelsea will be buoyed by their recent 2-0 win over Bournemouth in the Premier League, which ended a run of three consecutive defeats.
City, meanwhile, will be looking to continue their good form, having won their last four matches in all competitions.
The match is scheduled to kick off at 11:30am ET on Sunday, November 12, and will be televised on ESPN+.
Chelsea will be without the suspended Mateo Kovacic for the match, while City will be missing the injured Erling Haaland.
Despite the absentees, both sides will be confident of victory and a place in the fourth round.
