There's not been much from Chelsea in terms of attacking threat. The defence has been busier, highlighted by Danny Welbeck having 12 touches of the ball so far compared to 35 for Maxence Lacroix.

Away we go. Remember no extra time tonight, it will be straight to penalties.

A couple of substitutions at the break for the hosts.

Rayan Ait-Nouri is on for Ayyoub Bouaddi and Ryan McAidoo replaces Floyd Samba.

Best chance for Aston Villa on the stroke of half time as Leon Goretzka sends a header over from close range.

Sunderland lead by two in an eventful first half.

Somehow, Crystal Palace are ahead at the break.

All of Fulham's joy seems to be coming down this right-hand side and Oscar Bobb.

His latest ball is looped back from the byline and it's a good opportunity for Sander Berge but his header sails over the bar.

Liverpool have the opportunity to cause a bit of danger in the box with a Joe Gomez long throw. He sends the ball into the area and the ball does bounce among Chelsea and Liverpool players, but the visitors are able to clear.

Fulham have had 74% possession so far in this game. Four shots with one on target.

Palace have had one shot on target - Eddie Nketiah's goal. In fact, that has been their only touch in the Fulham box so far.

It's something that I think we'll get used to saying but there really is something about Rio Ngumoha that gets fans off their seats, when he has the ball.

We're also getting used to hearing the "Rio, Rio" chant around Anfield.

Emiliano Buendía should do better really as he gets the ball just outside the box but can only drag a tame effort wide. He had space to produce something better there, really.

A nice looking ball into the box from Oscar Bobb and Rodrigo Muniz's header is straight to Dean Henderson but it's a strange bit of goalkeeping from the Palace shot stopper, who has been out for a while.

Bit rusty?

Talk about against the run of play.

Just how important could that goal be for the Eagles?

Benjamin Lecomte is fuming with Joachim Andersen after he failed to put up Eddie Nketiah.

He has to be careful.

The thing is with these young players on yellow cards, [the manager] might look at half-time and think we might have to sacrifice you because we can't afford to go down to 10 men.

It was a big horrible touch from McConnell, he tries to make amends and he stuck a hand out.

Anfield raises its voice as Rio Ngumoha surges forward. He feeds the overlapping Konstantinos Tsimikas but his low cross is hacked away.
