Middlesbrough and Chelsea will face each other today, March 19 at the Riverside Stadium in what will be the quarter finals of the 2021-2022 FA Cup. Here you will find everything you need to know about this game, such as the preview, storylines, predictions, odds and how to watch or live stream it free.
After closing out their UEFA Champions League Round of 16 series against a combative Lille, Chelsea will now have to face their FA Cup commitment. Despite being third, they are far from the fight for the Premier League, so the main objectives of the “Blues” this season will be the FA Cup and the Champions League.
On the Middlesbrough side, they want to give a new surprise in this 2021-2022 edition of the FA Cup. In the round of 16 they eliminated Manchester United on penalties, and Tottenham in the round of 16, which means that they know very well how to play against big teams. Likewise, this will be an even bigger challenge for them, as they will face one of the best teams on the continent.
