We now play our fifth FA Cup semi-final in six years.We last played Palace in the FA Cup in 1976, suffering a 3-2 defeat at Stamford Bridge in the fifth round. However the previous two times the Blues were handed this London derby in the competition we triumphed, winning after a replay in 1971 and 4-1 at Selhurst Park in 1970, on the way to lifting the trophy.

A game in 1926 and a preliminary round tie in Chelsea's very first season went Crystal Palace's way.
