Chelsea vs. Liverpool
Liverpool come into the fifth round of the FA Cup on the back of suffering their first Premier League defeat of the season.
The Reds were stunned 3-0 by Watford on Saturday, ending their hopes of an unbeaten season:
Melissa Reddy @MelissaReddy_
#LFC lose a league game for the first time in 422 days. Their unbeaten run ends at 44 matches.
The defeat followed a 3-2 win over West Ham United and a 1-0 loss at Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League, so Jurgen Klopp's side have shipped six goals in their last three games.
Chelsea are in even bigger trouble defensively, though.
They had to come from a goal down to salvage a 2-2 draw at Bournemouth on Saturday, per Goal's Nizaar Kinsella:
Nizaar Kinsella @NizaarKinsella
FT: Bournemouth 2-2 Chelsea
Neither side will be happy with the result. From #CFC's point of view, Marcos Alonso sums them up. Flying forward, scoring goals but that left side was exploited by Bournemouth. Chaos at the end with both sides desperately fighting #BOUCHE
The Blues have not kept a clean sheet in eight games in all competitions, and no team has conceded more than their 39 in the Premier League's top half.
Frank Lampard‘s side have failed to win on 12 occasions at Stamford Bridge this season, too, having lost eight of those games, so it will be difficult for them against a Liverpool side looking to bounce back from their shock defeat.
Derby County vs. Manchester United
United's trip to Derby will see former Red Devils captain Wayne Rooney face his former club.
The 34-year-old is United's record goalscorer, with 253 strikes in 559 appearances.
He doesn't have a particularly good record when facing United, though:
Simon Stone @sistoney67
Wayne Rooney has lost all six games he has played against Manchester United.
The quality of the Red Devils' performances has improved since Bruno Fernandes joined the club from Sporting Lisbon in January, too.
He pulled the strings for the first 65 minutes as United beat Club Brugge 5-0 in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday:
Statman Dave @StatmanDave
Bruno Fernandes’ game by numbers vs. Club Brugge:
25 final third passes
5 ball recoveries
4 shots (3 on target)
3 chances created
2/3 tackles won
1 goalA joy to watch. 😍 https://t.co/qSol2ZbN1a
In four starts for his new side, he's contributed two goals and two assists, so with him in the team United should have too much for the Championship outfit.
