Latest: Chelsea 0 Man City 0 – Blues on top at the Bridge

Pedro of Chelsea

Pedro almost put Chelsea ahead in the FA Cup fifth-round tie against a much-changed Manchester City side.

The Blues wide-man exchanged passes with fellow Spaniard Cesc Fabregas before nudging the ball beyond keeper Willy Caballero and against the far post.

Fabregas then set up Diego Costa, who was crowded out by the City defence, and the midfielder also had a left-footed shot from the edge of the penalty area saved by Caballero.

Earlier, 19-year-old striker David Faupala – one of five City players given their full debut – had an effort saved by keeper Thibaut Courtois.

Chelsea named a strong starting line-up, with Eden Hazard keeping his place and stand-in captain Branislav Ivanovic again partnering Gary Cahill at centre-back in the absence of the injured John Terry and Kurt Zouma.

Chelsea (4-2-3-1): Courtois; Azpilicueta, Cahill, Ivanovic, Baba; Mikel, Fabregas; Pedro, Willian, Hazard; Costa.
Subs: Begovic, Miazga, Matic, Loftus-Cheek, Oscar, Traore, Remy.
