On Sunday, Chelsea begin their FA Cup campaign at home to League One side Peterborough United.
This is the first time Antonio Conte will manage Chelsea in the FA Cup, and the Italian will hope to avoid a cup upset at home to Peterborough. The Blues will hope to strike straight back, following the end of their league winning streak. London rivals Tottenham ended the run of 13 consecutive league wins on Wednesday, with two Dele Alli headers enough to beat Chelsea.
