These are the Chelsea vs Port Vale confirmed lineups for their FA Cup Quarter-Final on April 4, 2026. Stamford Bridge plays host to this Premier League versus League One fixture as the Blues continue their easy run in the tournament this year. After opening their campaign against Championship outfit Charlton, they then visited another second division team in Hull City, and had the luck of the draw in the latest round when they beat out Wrexham. After three consecutive rounds against lower league teams they have gotten lucky and avoided the top teams to host Port Vale in a very winnable outing that would see them through to the Semi-Final.<\/p>\n
