Norwich City vs Chelsea: FA Cup third round – as it happened
It ended goalless at Carrow Road and will go to a replay
Norwich City host Chelsea at Carrow Road hoping to find a way past the Premier League champions and into the FA Cup fourth-round hat.
After a slow start to the season and stories of player unrest, Daniel Farke has managed to steady the ship and has Norwich perched in the middle of the Championship, and arrive in this fixture with unbeaten in their past three games.
Antonio Conte comes into this one amid a storm of flying accusations between himself and his Manchester United counterpart Jose Mourinho, and no doubt will be relieved that the focus returns to the football.
