Chelsea’s Pochettino hails Aston Villa boss Unai Emery as ‘one of best in world’
Follow live coverage as Fulham face Newcastle United in the FA Cup today.
This season marks the 143rd edition of the world’s oldest cup competition, with Manchester City the reigning champions after they secured their seventh victory of the tournament last term – part of their magnificent treble success.
While the usual suspects are likely to be in the running this season – Man United, Liverpool, Arsenal all included – it’s those without silverware lately who will hope to challenge into the latter stages, such as Newcastle, Tottenham and even Chelsea, who are without a domestic trophy in over five years despite European success.
Premier League clubs enter from the third round of the competition, but this cup is about all teams: from non-league to EFL sides in the lower leagues, everyone gets a shot at glory and the chance to face the country’s finest in the FA Cup.
