Two clubs chasing FA Cup glory will do battle today in a cup match between Chelsea and Bradford City. The fourth-round clash scheduled for 10 a.m. ET will be held at Stamford Bridge in London and can be live streamed here. There is no additional TV coverage for this match in the United States.
What They're Saying
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho (via ESPN FC): "I think the three best [goalkeepers] are Petr [Cech], [Thibaut] Courtois and [Manuel] Neuer. The Premier League is full of top goalkeepers, but we have the two best. So for me, it is so easy and to have both playing so well and giving so much confidence to the team."
Bradford City manager Phil Parkinson (via Daily Star): "Last year when he [Mourinho] went to Liverpool with a weakened team, I thought it was outstanding how he set his team up. That's why coaches and managers admire him. He's not worried how he's perceived. He doesn't always have to play the beautiful game."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Loic Remy has seen limited action since joining from Queens Park Rangers in the summer transfer window. The 28-year-old has just three starts for Chelsea, but still boasts a productive four goals. He'll look to impress and secure additional first-team minutes on Saturday.
Chelsea's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Cech; Luis, Zouma, Cahill, Azpilicueta; Mikel, Ramires; Remy, Oscar, Schurrle; Drogba
Bradford City's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Pickford; Darby, McArdle, Davies, Meredith; Liddle, Morais, Halliday, Knott; Hanson, Stead
