Manchester United's FA Youth Cup semi-final against Chelsea will take place at Stamford Bridge on Saturday 21 March at 17:15 GMT.

Neil Ryan's Reds defeated Wigan Athletic 2-1 in the quarter-final two weeks ago to reach the last four for the first time since 2012, after also seeing off Lincoln City, Norwich City and Leeds United in this season's competition.

The Blues, meanwhile, have won seven of the last 10 stagings of the tournament, but were knocked out in 2018/19 by United, at the third-round stage.
