Wrexham vs Chelsea Competition – FA Cup Stadium: STōK Cae Ras Date: 7th March 2026 Kick-off time – 17:45 GMT
Wrexham host Chelsea at STōK Cae Ras on Saturday 7th March 2026, with kick-off at 17:45 GMT in what promises to be an FA Cup fifth-round tie full of atmosphere and intrigue. The Red Dragons, currently flying high in the Championship, welcome one of the Premier League’s most expensively assembled squads to north Wales in a fixture that the Racecourse faithful will long remember regardless of the outcome. Chelsea, with their sights firmly set on a long cup run, will be expected to advance — but Wrexham arrive in genuinely excellent form and will not be rolling over for anyone.
Wrexham head into this tie on the back of four wins from their last five matches and are brimming with confidence. Their most recent outing produced a 1-0 win away at Charlton Athletic on February 28th, a disciplined away performance that underlines their Championship credentials. In their previous match, they claimed a 2-1 home win over Portsmouth on February 24th. Earlier in that sequence, they put on a real show at home, beating Ipswich Town 5-3 on February 21st in a thrilling encounter. Their only hiccup was a 2-2 draw away at Bristol City on February 17th — a point they’ll feel is more than respectable. Earlier still, they beat Ipswich Town 1-0 at home on February 13th in the FA Cup to set up this tie. This is a Wrexham side with momentum, goals in them, and a home crowd that will make STōK Cae Ras a very uncomfortable venue for any visitor.
Chelsea head into this tie in mixed but ultimately encouraging form. Their most recent result was an impressive 4-1 win away at Aston Villa on March 4th, a dominant display that showed the Blues at their attacking best. In their previous outing, they suffered a 2-1 defeat away at Arsenal on March 1st — a result that stings but does not define their season. Earlier, they drew 1-1 at home to Burnley on February 21st, a result that will have frustrated their supporters. In the FA Cup in their previous round, they brushed aside Hull City 4-0 away on February 13th, and before that they drew 2-2 at home to Leeds United on February 10th. Two draws, a loss and two wins from the last five tells the story of a side with enormous quality that can be inconsistent — which is precisely the opening Wrexham will be looking to exploit.
The only previous meetings between these clubs came in pre-season friendly fixtures, where Chelsea drew 2-2 at home in July 2024 and won 5-0 at home in July 2023. Given the pre-season context, those results carry little bearing on a competitive FA Cup tie.
