Wrexham vs Chelsea: Sat. Mar. 7 – 5:45pm GMT / 12:45pm ET

Watch Wrexham vs Chelsea live streams to see if the in-form Championship club can overcome their Premier League opponents and reach the quarter-finals of the FA Cup for the first time in almost 30 years.

Four years ago, this fixture would have been seen as a walkover for Chelsea. But after three consecutive promotions and in the midst of another excellent campaign, Wrexham now present a serious challenge for the eight-time winners of the FA Cup.

Phil Parkinson’s side are in the Championship play-off places and appear to be coming into form at just the right time. They currently have a four-point cushion over the chasing pack thanks to a run of three straight victories and will be determined to keep this streak going against Chelsea.

They’ll certainly present a challenge for the Chelsea defenders, having shown their attacking quality last month when putting five past Ipswich Town, who arrived in Wrexham with the best defence in the league.

However, they did concede three in that game and there is no doubt that the likes of Cole Palmer, Enzo Fernandez and João Pedro provide the sort of attacking quality that is a cut above Championship level. Liam Rosenior will also see the FA Cup as a realistic opportunity to win his first piece of silverware as a manager.
