National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Chelsea or Morecambe that keep their silverware dream alive.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Chelsea form and stats
Chelsea participated in FA Cup the last season, where they reached the final.Chelsea have played 9 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-3-2 (wins-draws-losses).
Preceding that game was the home draw versus Aston Villa that ended 1-1.
It would be a shock if the hosts fail to win this game. Let's see how Chelsea have performed as huge favourites like they are today: four games found in the database showing three Chelsea wins, zero draws and one defeat.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (19 in 9 games), Chelsea's attacking play is working. On the other hand, Chelsea have conceded 11 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Morecambe form and stats

This ended in the 1st round.As the visiting team in League Two matches, Morecambe have produced an overall stat of 5-1-4 so far. The visitors have performed well in their home games as well, building a total win streak of four games home and away. Morecambe hope to make it five in this match.
Impressive finishing from Adam Phillips and Carlos Mendes Gomes (2) secured the home win 3-1 against Grimsby Town in their previous game. Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at Colchester United.
Morecambe have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 10 league away games 14 goals have been scored.

There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
