Chelsea fans have been reacting to their side in the third round of the FA Cup.

The Reds will take on the with the tie due to be played across the weekend of Friday January 3 to Monday January 6, 2020.

This is not the first time that Forest will travel to , with the Reds taking on Chelsea at the same stage of the competition last season. A brace from Alvaro Morata sealed a 2-0 win for the Blues.

The two sides also met in the third round of the League Cup in September 2017, losing 5-1 at Stamford Bridge.

After the draw was confirmed, Forest fans reacted to the draw and now so have those of a Chelsea persuasion.

Here is a selection of what they had to say.

FranCfc: “Again.”

Alex Goldberg: “Nothing comes easy... but I’ll take that.”

Noah Robson: “Feel like we get them every year lol.”

Jimboburrell: “Boring draw but I'll take it.”

Lampard’s Blues: “Not bad and obviously better than some of the others we could have gotten.”

Azeez Olajide: “Drawing same team for the third year in a row.”

ChelseaBias: “This is a great tie tbh. Too easy an opposition and you don’t really give youngsters a proper test of how real football is. Not too difficult, but definitely not going to be a walk in the park.”
