League One side Bradford travel to Premier League leaders Chelsea in Saturday’s FA Cup fourth round clash.
The Bantams will looking to cause one of the biggest upsets at Stamford Bridge against the seven-time winners of the competition.
Manager Phil Parkinson has told his players to enjoy the extra attention and make the most of the game.
Speaking to the club’s website, Parkinson said: “We’ve come through a tough local fixture at Halifax, beaten Dartford and then overcome a side [Millwall] from the league above us.
“We now have this fantastic tie to savour against a top team and a top manager. We will be giving it everything we have this week to make sure we play to the very best we can come Saturday.”
Defender Andrew Davies is a major doubt after picking up a knock against Yeovil Town while Striker Billy Clark faces a late fitness test to ascertain his availability for the match. Jordan Pickford is also cup-tied which should see Ben Williams start in goal.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are in fine form at the moment after recovering from the 5-3 defeat at Tottenham on New Year’s day to win three in a row before drawing away to Liverpool in the Capital One Cup semi-final first leg.
Mourinho is sure to shuffle his side for this one keeping next week’s crunch games at home to Liverpool and Manchester City in mind.
Andre Schurrle and Mohammed Salah, both of whom are rumored to be on the way out of the club, should be in the starting XI for this one while Petr Cech takes his place in goal.
Regulars Fabregas and Nemanja Matic will be rested and in their place, Mikel Obi and Ramires should feature. One of Didier Drogba or Loic Remy will lead the line for the Stamford Bridge outfit with Kurt Zouma taking his place at the heart of the defense.
