Chelsea’s first competitive meeting with AFC Wrexham since 1982 represents the most intriguing tie of the FA Cup fifth round this weekend.

The Blues, responsible for redefining soccer ownership at the start of the century, arguably set the stage for Wrexham’s Hollywood takeover, with Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac celebrating their five-year anniversary as owners last month.

The Red Dragons have achieved so much since the pair of actors rocked up in north Wales, including three consecutive promotions. However, the defeat of a bone fide member of Europe’s elite would perhaps trump their collection of silverware, especially when you consider where Wrexham’s wish themselves to be in the near future.

They’ve already topped Premier League opposition to help set up Saturday’s blockbuster clash, and Chelsea, while not a title-contending iteration, are a sizeable leap in quality from the relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest.

Here is how to catch Saturday’s FA Cup tie on TV.
