Confirmed teams and complete line-ups, TV channel, FA Cup semi-final live streaming online
Leeds take on Chelsea this afternoon looking to book their place in the FA Cup final for the first time in 53 years.
The West Yorkshire club hit the headlines for the wrong reasons when they last reached the showpiece, memorably losing 1-0 to Second Division side Sunderland in 1973, and have endured a barren years since.
But under Daniel Farke they have produced a solid season, although a win elsewhere this weekend means their Premier League status is still not guaranteed.
Leeds certainly have a more settled look to them than Chelsea. The Blues this week sacked manager Liam Rosenior after a narrow 3-0 defeat at Brighton and Calum McFarlane was installed as interim manager for the rest of the season.
