While Chelsea had 21 shots to Brentford's nine in the goalless draw between the two sides, the Bees had the better chances and based off them, should have taken three points. In the first half, Mikkel Damgaard was through on goal six yards out, but completely missed the ball when he only had Blues goalkeeper Robert Sanchez to beat.

Report from Leeds tonight, where Luke Humphries picked up his first night win since February in his closest thing to a hometown. https://t.co/1rlwHGIpkz
An interesting and niche statistic for you all. All eight players tonight have averaged below 100 in their quarter-final performances, with each match lasting either 10 or 11 legs each. That's the first time that has happened since Nottingham in the 2023 season, 26 months ago.
