Chelsea are no strangers to success in the FA Cup. After a long wait for their second win in 1997, they haven't had a more barren spell in the competition than the current one.
The Blues have waited six years and seven years between cup wins since 2000, but never eight. If they don't go all the way in 2025, this would become Chelsea's third-longest period without winning the FA Cup.
Such trivialities won't enter into the thinking of Enzo Maresca, who takes his team to Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday for an all-Premier League fourth round tie.
The Seagulls are the Premier League's draw specialists but there will be a winner at the Amex Stadium. After comfortable wins for both in the third round, this meeting of Brighton and Chelsea will be a sturdier test for both.
