• These Premier League giants have met 166 times competitively; Manchester United have won 72, Chelsea 45 and 49 have been drawn.

• Early goals from Javier Hernandez and Wayne Rooney in the original tie at Old Trafford on 10 March seemed to set Manchester United on their way to the last four of the FA Cup, but a second-half fightback with Eden Hazard and Ramires finding the net, saw Chelsea earn this replay.

• Manchester United hold an eight wins to two lead in the FA Cup standings, including a 4-0 victory in the 1994 final with two penalties from Eric Cantona. Chelsea won their only other clash in the final, 1-0, in the first to be held at the new Wembley, courtesy of a goal in extra time from Didier Drogba.

• This is only the second time out of the 11 when these clubs have drawn each other in the FA Cup, that the tie has not been settled at the first time of asking.

• This is United’s third trip to Stamford Bridge this season, having won in the Premier League by the odd goal in five, and lost in the Capital One Cup by the odd goal in nine.
