If Chesterfield are to reach their first FA Cup final, they will have to overcome the Premiership's bottom club, Middlesbrough, in the semi-finals.

Despite the difference in status, they have one thing in common. Neither Middlesbrough or the Second Division club has been this far in this competition.

Chelsea, beaten semi-finalists last season, and Wimbledon, who meet in the other semi, have won the Cup once each.

FA CUP, semi-final draw; Wimbledon v Chelsea, Middlesbrough v Chesterfield.

Matches to be played on Sunday 13 April.
