Chelsea 1-1 Norwich City: Blues need penalties to overcome Canaries as Morata and Pedro see red

Can Hazard send Chelsea through? Of course he can! The nine-man Blues march on!

Murphy shows his mettle. 4-3.

Kante the next to step up... nicely done by the Frenchman. 4-2.

Vrancic keeps Norwich hopes alive. 3-2

Can you rely on Azpilicueta? Of course you can. 3-1.

Maddison halves the deficit for the Canaries with a cool spot-kick. 2-1.

David Luiz follows his compatriot Willian... and makes no mistake. 2-0.

Oliveira steps up for Norwich, but his effort is saved by Caballero!

Here we go then. Willian steps up first... and scores. 1-0 Chelsea.

Talking points, talking points everywhere.

Conte, predictably is fuming with referee Graham Scott, who will no doubt come under the microscope in tomorrow's papers.

Full-time. To penalties we go.

Morata has been shown two yellows within five seconds!

The Spaniard went down under pressure from Klose and is adjudged to have dived be the referee, who shows him a yellow. Incadescent with rage, Morata says something untoward to Graham Scott, who immediately whips out a red and sends him off.

What is going on here!

RED CARD FOR MORATA!

Pedro is given his marching orders by Graham Scott after scything down Hoolahan from behind. The Spaniard was cautioned in the second half of normal time for diving and can have no complaints over his dismissal.

RED CARD FOR PEDRO!

Murphy almost picks out Cantwell in the Chelsea box but the latter just can't bring the ball under his spell.

Chelsea try to unlock Noriwch through Kante, but his cutback was once again cut out by Zimmermann. The game has now stopped as Pinto attempts to rid himself of cramp.

Zappacosta's low criss is cleared by Zimmermann as Chelsea look to turn the screw.

Morata then turns and shoots before Pinto's vital interception denies Pedro and sends the ball out for a corner.

Morata gets the second half of extra-time underway. Will he be the one to find a late, late winner?

The referee blows the whistle to end the first period of extra-time, during which VAR has once again become the talking point after Willian was booked for diving when it looked a certain penalty.

A splendid minute from Gunn sees him deny Willian and Morata with spellbinding saves. Once again, the Spaniard's effort lacks conviction, but full credit to Gunn as we head into the second period of extra-time.

Final change for Chelsea; Hazard on, Drinkwater off.

Maddison goes into book for scything down Kante before releasing Cantwell, who couldn't find Oliveira with his low cross.

Norwich win a corner from Luiz, taken poorly by Maddison, and Chelsea eventually win a foul courtesy of Willian.

Morata is the next to go down inside the area but the referee waves away his protests. The Spaniard was in Klose's hold, but the defender rides his luck once more.

Underway in the second half of extra time and immediately a penalty shout has been waved away by referee Graham Scott, who has booked Willian for simulation.

Replays show there was contact on Willian from Klose; will we go to VAR?

The two other FA Cup replays tonight have finished. Swansea have beaten Wolves by two goals to one, while Wigan rode to a 3-0 victory over Bournemouth.

Jamal Lewis' first ever goal for Norwich takes the game into extra-time!

A wonderful cross from Klose picks out Lewis, whose wonderful glancing header gives Caballero no chance. We're heading to extra-time at Stamford Bridge!

GOAL! Chelsea 1-1 Norwich City (Lewis)

A late rally from Norwich sees them win a corner from Luiz, which is cleared by Morata.

Chelsea then surge up the pitch through Zappacosta but Norwich eventually regroup and are eventually adjudged offside. Murphy the guilty party.

Superb play from Pedro almost finds Willian, but his pass is just cut out by Zimmermann.

Morata and Zappacosta should both kill the game but the Spaniard can't reach the ball while the Italian can't turn it goalwards.

Morata then sets up Willian for what looked like a certain goal, but Gunn managed to intervene.

Chelsea keeping Norwich at bay as Farke rolls the dace with less than five minutes of normal time remaining.

Hanley, who has been struggling with a calf problem, is replaced by teenage midfielder Cantwell.

Conte also makes a change as Kante comes on for Kenedy.

Norwich making a change, too, as Hoolahan replaces Reed. Eight minutes remaining.

Conte makes changes as Morata and Christensen come on in place of Batshuayi and Ampadu.

Bakayoko tests Gunn with a bobbling drive that is well held by the young Englishman.

Norwich come forward through Oliveira and Murphy, who wins a free-kick on the right flank.

Maddison takes after Kenedy overcomes his bout of cramp, but it comes to nothing.

We're into the final 20 minutes of the match at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea still leading through Batshuayi's strike.

Willian runs at extreme pace against the Norwich defence before stopping himself dead and teeing up Drinkwater, who fires over when he should at least test Gunn.

Norwich spurn another golden opportunity!

Reed forces an error from Drinkwater and plays in Maddison, whose shot is saved excellently by Caballero. Chelsea really under the kosh at the minute as the visitors hustle and harry in search of an equaliser.

Norwich come agonisingly close to an equalising goal! Caballero makes an almighty hash of a lofted ball that comes to a Norwich player, whose goalbound effort looks to be cleared off the line by Ampadu.

Chelsea then break up the pitch through Kenedy. The Brazilian slips in Pedro, who executes a terrible dive and is rightly booked by referee Graham Scott.

Norwich attempt to respond quickly as Murphy battles through a host of bodies to win a free-kick

Maddison takes the set-piece, but Caballero manages to beat the ball away.

GOAL! Chelsea 1-0 Norwich City (Batshuayi)

Willian tees up Kenedy, whose lovely low cross finds Batshuayi in the six-yard box. The Belgian makes no mistake, finding the roof of the net with a smart tap-in, made more difficult by a troublesome bobble.

David Luiz surges forward and finds Willian brilliantly. The winger cuts inside in search of Bakayoko, whose first touch allows Klose to clear.

Willian attempts to link up with Batshuayi but the Belgian loses the ball before somewhat impressively fouling two Norwich players at the same time.

Vrancic then tries to feed Murphy but Caballero reads the danger well.

The second half is underway at Stamford Bridge. Will we be blessed with goals?

Danny Drinkwater rattled the bar with a sumptuous effort midway through the first-half.

There are two other FA Cup replays taking place; Wigan Athletic are leading Bournemouth 1-0, while Swansea are beating Wolves by the same scoreline.

Half-time: Chelsea 0-0 Norwich City:

Certainly not a classic at Stamford Bridge, where both sides have rattled the crossbar. Chelsea started brightly and should have taken the lead through Willian, but Norwich finished the half strongly after withstanding substantial early pressure.

Kenedy executes a lovely piece of skill to evade Pinto but Reed comes over to bodycheck him.

The Brazilian the latches onto the resulting free-kick but his cross goes straight for a free-kick as the half-time whistle blows.

Kenedy shoots from distance but his wayward strike is never troubling Gunn, who watched the ball whistle into the crowd of Norwich supporters.

Bakayoko looks for Pedro, but his pass is overcooked.

Five minutes of the first half remaining and it's Norwich who are finishing the stronger.

Chelsea are looking to respond to the visitor's bright passage of play, but frustrations soon boil over as Kenedy swings at Oliveira, who challenged him robustly.

Oliveira tries to rid himself of the attentions of Azpilicueta but the Spaniard eventually forces his adversary to shoot well wide. The Norwich forward is coming into the game more as his team grow in confidence.

Murphy flashes a low cross in the six-yard box but nobody could get a toe to it.

Norwich hit the bar through Oliveira!

Batshuayi's awful pass gifts the ball to Oliveira, who takes a touch, shoots brilliantly but fails to find the net. So close for the Portuguese, who executed the strike with great technique.

Drinkwater smashes the bar!

A piledriver from the Englishman from all of 30 yards beats Gunn but the woodwork prevents him from giving Chelsea the lead. Replays showed that Gunn managed to get fingertips on the strike, as Batshuayi is again adjudged offside.

Willian and Pedro have been making things happen, but we're still goalless at Stamford Bridge.

A lovely outside-of-the-foot pass from Kenedy sees Batshuayi bare down on goal, but the Belgian is wrongly adjudged offside. Another let-off for Norwich, who can't hold onto the ball for longer than 10 seconds.

Norwich striving to maintain a foothold in the match but don't look dangerous at present.

Chelsea are quickly on the attack again through Willian and Zappacosta, who finds Kenedy, but the Brazilian's effort is blocked by Zimmermann.

Chelsea win a free-kick in a dangerous area as Vrancic fouls Willian. The Brazilian stands over the ball along with Luiz.

The latter shoots, straight into the hands of Gunn.

Willian gets in behind Norwich and latches onto a lovely lofted ball from Drinkwater, but he drags his shot well wide. 10 minutes gone, Chelsea should be two in front already.

Azpilicueta just can't connect!

The Spaniard almost latches onto to a Bakayoko knockdown but he just can't stretch enough. Norwich survive, for now.

Norwich just about clear a corner as Chelsea begin to apply some pressure. Pedro and Willian are causing all sort of problems, the latter stinging the palms of Gunn with a low drive.

Drinkwater unleashes the first shot of the game from a Willian lay-off. It's struck well, but Gunn is able to see it out for a goal kick.

Norwich force an error from Caballero, who kicks a backpass straight into touch. Farke's men can't make the most of the opportunity to apply pressure, though, as Maddison is adjudged offside.

We are underway at Stamford Bridge. Luiz immediately in possession but Norwich are awarded a free-kick as Batshuayi uses his hand to control the ball.

Five minutes to go until kick-off now. Will we see an upset caused by Norwich, or a routine victory for Chelsea?

Just over 10 minutes until kick-off. Your final reminder of the teams:

Chelsea: Caballero; Azpilicueta (c), David Luiz, Ampadu; Zappacosta, Bakayoko, Drinkwater, Kenedy; Willian, Batshuayi, Pedro.

Norwich City: McGovern (GK), Husband, Hoolahan, Stiepermann, Raggett, Tettey, Cantwell.

Norwich youngster Jamal Lewis is hoping to make a big impression in west London:

"You can't be a negative thinker. There's definitely a chance for us to win. If you tell yourself it will happen, it happens.

"I think I've used all my nerves now. First impressions are over so it's time for me to play with confidence and passion.

"I want to embrace every moment of it. I pride myself on doing my job for the team.

"We need to be good in our box and good in their box. We won't show them too much respect."

He starts tonight.

Football legend Ronaldinho called time on a phenomenal career today. The Brazilian, one of the most entertaining players to ever grace the sport, delivered one of his finest moments at Stamford Bridge.

A swiftly made montage by the Canaries.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is not the only boss looking for a new striker.

Norwich City boss Daniel Farke wants to bring in a new hitman before the end of the month after allowing Cameron Jerome to join high-flying Derby County.

"We can be honest. We expect that there will be a deal [for Jerome]," said Farke, according to The Pink Un. "It is not 100% done but that is the situation at the moment. It is a tricky situation.

"I think he has done so much for this club, he is an experienced player with many goals and appearances, especially in the Championship. We have taken this decision. It is not 100% done but we are open to this.

"It is fair to say we will be looking in the market. We have let Alex Pritchard go and Yanic Wildschut on loan so if Cameron goes there is some space in the squad. We will search for how to improve our squad in the striker positions."

Oh. Maybe not half an hour until kick-off, then...

Major problems on the District Line have seen the game pushed back by a quarter of an hour.

Half an hour until kick-off at Stamford Bridge.

A reminder of tonight's teams:

Chelsea: Caballero; Azpilicueta (c), David Luiz, Ampadu; Zappacosta, Bakayoko, Drinkwater, Kenedy; Willian, Batshuayi, Pedro.

Norwich City: McGovern (GK), Husband, Hoolahan, Stiepermann, Raggett, Tettey, Cantwell.

Norwich could only muster a poll about VAR, but Chelsea have provided us all with fancy graphics explaining the ins and out of the device. Well in, lads.

A very hot topic at the moment. Will there be a repeat of the incident at Leicester, where VAR correctly gave Kelechi Iheanacho's goal after it was ruled for offside by the linesman?

Tettey has been struggling with a slight knock in recent weeks.

Away from the imminent clash at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea have made an approach for Roma left-back Emerson Palmieri after growing frustrated in their pursuit of Juventus defender Alex Sandro, according to reports.

Emerson, 23, returned to action recently from a serious knee ligament injury and is second choice to Aleksandar Kolarov in the left-back position at Roma.

Liverpool and Juventus have also been linked with a move for the defender, but Roma are reportedly reluctant to sell him to one of their domestic rivals.

The teams are in, excitement grows. Will we be treated to a better game than the one served up at Carrow Road 11 days ago? You'd like to think so.

Norwich manager Daniel Farke has named arguably his strongest side despite having a number of important Championship fixtures coming up.

James Maddison will be looking to make an impression on the grand stage, while Nelson Oliveira, who has been in and out of the team so far this season will lead the line in the absence of Cameron Jerome, who has left for Derby County.

As expected, Chelsea boss Antonio Conte makes a whole host of changes to the side that drew with Leicester City on the weekend.

David Luiz returns to the fold while Michy Batshuayi gets a chance to lead the line, while there are also starts for Davide Zappacosta, Danny Drinkwater and Kenedy, who has been linked with a move to Newcastle United.

TEAM NEWS

TEAM NEWS

Willy Caballero, who will take his place between the sticks for Chelsea tonight, has spoken ahead of the imminent clash:

"You know playing this cup is a very good challenge for us," the Argentine said. "We want to get as far as we can. Now we have a game at home and for sure we have to start very well because we know what they can do.

"In the first game they played well. Our first half was probably a little bit poor, but in the second half we played more like Chelsea. We were stronger but we couldn't score. It's true that if you cannot win, it's better not to lose."

Andy Carroll is said to have designs on leaving West Ham for Chelsea, and the Hammers board are open to doing a deal for the former Liverpool hitman, but former Irons skipper Nigel Reo-Coker has urged the powers that be in east London to think twice before parting with the powerful target man.

"Andy Carroll is a vital player for West Ham, even though they have picked up a few results lately," he told Sky Sports.

"There's still a long way to go this season and he's a player they need to keep right now for the team, the system and the way they play.

"On his day he can be a handful for even the best defenders in the Premier League and selling him in the January window is not the right thing to do.

"And, despite what you might get for him, you have to remember what position it could leave your team in. Or have they someone in mind who can fit in right now?

"For West Ham, and where they are right now, Carroll is a player they need to keep in this window."

Any team selection hints here?

Michy Batshuayi may be given the nod to start against the Canaries, but tonight may be his last in a Chelsea shirt for the foreseeable future.

The Belgian striker is courting interest from Sevilla, who are interested in signing him on loan, and Conte is willing to let him leave if he manages to bring in a replacement.

West Ham United's Andy Carroll is believed to be in the Italian's thoughts.

Antonio Conte also provided some brief updates on the injuries suffered by Cahill and Fabregas on Tuesday:

"Cahill, but his problem is not so serious," Conte replied when asked for any injury news. "A muscular problem. And Cesc had a little problem in his hamstring and is not available for tomorrow's game."

New signing Ross Barkley will not make his eagerly-anticipated Chelsea debut against Norwich, while Gary Cahill and Cesc Fabregas are also set to miss the FA Cup third-round replay at Stamford Bridge through injury.

Barkley moved to west London from Everton on a five-and-a-half year deal for £15m ($20.6m) on 5 January, but was unavailable for the initial meeting with the Canaries and the draws against Arsenal and Leicester City having only recently recovered from surgery on a hamstring tear that has prevented him from making a single competitive appearance in 2017-18.

It was suggested on Saturday [13 January] that the 24-year-old, who also underwent a groin operation during the summer, could play some part in midweek after impressing at Cobham, though the fact that he was not registered in time for the stalemate at Carrow Road means he remains ineligible for the subsequent replay.

Everyone loves a blast from the past, don't they? Well, maybe not Norwich fans in this case...

The Canaries have flown in.

Norwich, who have sold three players since they met Chelsea at Carrow Road 11 days ago, will miss another key player in the form of Tom Trybull. The midfielder is struggling with a back problem and is having regular injections to try and cure the issue.

"He has some injections for his back, and he probably won't be available for the weekend either," Farke said.

"He has to have injections for a few days and if everything goes fine he should be in training in the middle of next week. But if the injections don't work we'll have to wait and see and look at other options."

Good evening and welcome to IB Times UK's live FA Cup coverage of Chelsea vs Norwich City.

The Blues and Canaries played out a testing 0-0 draw at Carrow Road 11 days ago and will hopefully serve up a better contest in west London than they did in east Anglia, though Daniel Farke's men have been weakened in the days between the initial tie and the replay; Norwich have seen Alex Pritchard, Yanic Wildschut and Cameron Jerome all leave for pastures new.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is desperate for fresh faces to arrive at Stamford Bridge, but his sole January signing Ross Barkley is not eligible to play tonight as he wasn't registered in time for the clash at Carrow Road.

Conte will no doubt rotate his players again as he looks to end a run of three straight 0-0 draws, while Farke may see fit to play some of his fringe players with one eye on his side's clash with Sheffield United.
