Our football match prediction:
Chelsea will be looking to move one step closer to winning the FA Cup title with a win over Sheffield Wednesday at their Stamford Bridge. The Blues recorded a routine win over Nottingham Forest in round 3 and they are considered hot favourites to win Sunday’s football game. The Owls, on the other hand, have been struggling in the Championship this season and, as a result, they sit in 16th position in the standings. Chelsea are desperate to bounce back from a heart-breaking 2-0 loss to Arsenal in the local derby and we are positive that Maurizio Sarri’s men are going to leave their hearts on the field. Chelsea are eager to get back on course and we believe that they are going to prove their worth on the field. In their last meeting in London Chelsea recorded a 3-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday.
Highlighted Player (Eden Hazard):
After impressing during his six-year spell with Lille (2007-2012), Eden Hazard signed for Chelsea in June, 2012. The Belgian midfielder helped the Blues win the Premier League trophy in the 2014/2015 campaign and it has to be noted that he was named the Premier League Player of the Year back then. Eden Hazard made it to the 2014 World Cup quarter-finals with Belgium, but Argentina proved to be a big catch for the Red Devils in the last eight of the showpiece tournament in Brazil. Hazard scored one goal for Belgium at the Euro 2016 finals, while providing four assists for his teammates and no doubt he was the key player for Marc Wilmots’ team at the tournament in France. Eden was born on 7 January, 1991 in La Louviere, Belgium and it is well known that his brother Thorgan Hazard is a professional football player as well. Eden Hazard is married to Natacha Van Honacker, who gave birth to their three children.

Highlighted Team (Sheffield Wednesday):

Sheffield Wednesday are one of the two famous clubs from the city of Sheffield (South Yorkshire). The Owls compete in the English second tier (Championship) and they play their home matches at Hillsborough. The venue was the scene of the Hillsborough disaster which occurred in 1989 when 96 Liverpool supporters were crushed to death in the FA Cup semi-final. It has to be noted that the World Cup (1966) and the Euro (1996) matches were played at Hillsborough. Sheffield Wednesday have won four First Division trophies (1902/2903, 1903/1904, 1928/1929, 1929/2930) and they finished the 1960/1961 campaign in second place in the standings. The Owls have clinched three FA Cup trophies (1896, 1907, 1935), with the team winning the League Cup in 1991. Sheffield Wednesday defeated English giants Manchester United (1-0) in the title game. Sheffield United are regarded as the Owls’ main rivals and the two teams face each other in the Steel City derby.
