Swansea have only once beaten Chelsea at Stamford Bridge (in any competition), a 3-1 Division Two victory when the clubs first ever met back in November 1925.

The last two matches between the clubs have ended in a 1-1 draw (both in the Premier League at the Liberty Stadium).

Chelsea

They last reached the League Cup semi-finals in 2008, when they beat Everton to reach the final – only to lose to Tottenham.

The Blues won the League Cup for the fourth time a year earlier, in 2007. Only Liverpool (eight) and Aston Villa (five) have won the competition more often.

Chelsea have scored a total of 16 goals in eliminating Wolves, Manchester United and Leeds in their previous League Cup ties this season.

Swansea

Swansea have reached the semi-finals of the League Cup for the first time in their history, and had never before reached the last eight.

They were knocked out of the League Cup at the second-round stage last season by Shrewsbury Town (then in League Two).

Never before in 100 years has the club won a major trophy.

They have scored 10 goals in their four ties so far in this cup run: 3-1 at home to Barnsley, 3-2 at Crawley, 3-1 away to Liverpool, and 1-0 at home to Middlesbrough.

    Abromovich should sack himself for some wrong decisions he made for Chelsea. It’s not a good managerial decision to change an organisional plan that has not been tested for atleast one year simple because the productivity level is not yet 100%.
