- 切尔西在过去13场主场比赛中赢得了9场胜利
- 莱斯特队在过去八场客场比赛中有四场未能获胜，包括在利兹和考文垂的失利
- 切尔西在过去五次交锋中赢了四次
- 切尔西在2023-24赛季主场以15-3的总比分击败了所有四家英冠俱乐部。
半决赛向蓝军招手
当切尔西与英冠领头羊争夺足总杯半决赛席位时，他们应该有信心克服莱斯特的挑战。
蓝军将于周日进入’；在周一晚上的英超联赛中以3比2战胜纽卡斯尔联队之后，在斯坦福桥举行的比赛。这是毛里西奥·波切蒂诺的典型表演；他们在主场很容易被信任，尽管偶尔会在比赛中摇摆不定。
切尔西创造了很多机会，也浪费了几乎同样多的机会，但问题的关键是他们能否取得足够的进球，超过不可避免的后防线，让对手找到他们的网后。
切尔西对付了冠军挑战者
他们本赛季对阵英冠球队的记录表明他们会的，因为蓝军已经在斯坦福桥击败了布莱克本、米德尔斯堡、普雷斯顿和利兹。
其中，只有利兹队可能与莱斯特队不相上下，西约克郡队也做出了一些改变，但切尔西最终找到了避免加时赛的方法。
莱斯特队在90分钟内只赢得了过去六场比赛中的一场，在接下来的一段时间里，他们来到了伦敦西部。上个月在摇摇欲坠的米德尔斯堡的失利为一系列艰难的结果奠定了基调，尽管在三月初以1-0险胜桑德兰，但他们看起来仍然摇摇欲坠。
狐狸会闪光，但缺乏信念
狐狸队不再趾高气扬，尽管这场比赛的时间安排在国际比赛日前，这场比赛更像是一场任意球，但莱斯特队不太可能仅仅凭借偶尔的闪光照亮斯坦福桥。
Enzo Maresca’；s的队员可能会被训练有素的逼抢方逼出比赛计划，而意大利人自己也承认，他没有B计划。切尔西在中场有足够的精力和纪律，让莱斯特很难发起进攻，从那时起，客队可能会开始分崩离析。
尽管他们整个赛季没有输过一场超过两球的比赛，但这一天莱斯特可能会被一支更高质量的球队变得非常普通。切尔西在本赛季与英冠俱乐部的四场比赛中，有三场比赛进了三球或更多，其中两场比赛以四球或更多的优势获胜，因此3-0的比分很有可能。
预言：
切尔西-2
切尔西3-0

外文原文如下：
- Chelsea have won nine of their last 13 home games in all competitions
- Leicester have failed to win four of their last eight away games, including defeats at Leeds and Coventry
- Chelsea have won four of the last five meetings between the clubs
- Chelsea have beaten all four Championship clubs they have faced at home in 2023-24 by a combined score of 15-3.
Semi-finals beckon for Blues
Chelsea should be confident of overcoming the challenge of Leicester when they face off against the Championship leaders for a place in the FA Cup semi-finals.
The Blues will enter Sunday’s contest at Stamford Bridge off the back of a 3-2 success over Newcastle United in the Premier League on Monday night. It was a typical performance from Mauricio Pochettino’s side, who are easy to trust at home despite the occasional in-game wobble.
Chelsea create plenty of chances and waste almost as many too, but the crux of the matter is whether they can score enough to outweigh the inevitable rick at the back that allows their opponents to find the back of their net.
Chelsea have handled Championship challengers
Their record against teams from the Championship this season suggests they will because the Blues have already beaten Blackburn, Middlesbrough, Preston and Leeds at Stamford Bridge.
Of those, only Leeds may be in the class of Leicester and the West Yorkshire side made some changes, but Chelsea eventually found a way to avoid extra time.
Leicester arrive in West London in the middle of a sticky patch after winning only one of their last six games in all competitions within the 90 minutes. A defeat at faltering Middlesbrough last month set the tone for a rough sequence of results and, despite edging a 1-0 win at Sunderland early in March, they still look shaky.
Foxes can show flashes but lack belief
There is no swagger about the Foxes anymore and, despite the timing of this fixture just before the international break making it even more of a free hit, it is unlikely that Leicester light up Stamford Bridge with more than just a flash of occasional brilliance.
Enzo Maresca’s men can be forced out of their gameplan by well-drilled pressing sides and the Italian, by his own admission, does not have a Plan B. Chelsea have enough energy and discipline in their midfield to make it very hard for Leicester to initiate attacks and from there on, it could start to fall apart for the visitors.
Although they have not lost a game by more than two goals all season, this could be the day when Leicester are made to look very ordinary by a higher-quality side. Chelsea have scored three or more goals in three of their four contests against Championship clubs this term and won two of those games by four goals or more, so a 3-0 scoreline may well be possible.
Predictions:Chelsea -2
Chelsea 3-0
