FA Cup Third Round 2025/26 Updates, Text and Stats

Liam Rosenior will take charge Chelsea for the first time as the Blues visit Championship club Charlton in the FA Cup third round on Saturday.

The former Strasbourg boss watched Chelsea’s 2-1 defeat at Fulham on Wednesday from the stands, leaving them eighth in the table. Premier League painting.

Charlton made a strong return to the Second Division after making the League One play-offs last season, but have hit the buffers in recent weeks with one win in their last 11 games.

The Addicks sit 19th in the table, five points above the relegation zone.
