Watford caused a shock in the FA Youth Cup by defeating 2006 and 2007 winners Liverpool 1-0 to set up a quarter final tie with Chelsea.

Liverpool have been in three of the last four FA Youth Cup finals but a Piero Mingoia penalty after 17 minutes was enough at Anfield.

Watford are currently scheduled to take on Chelsea at home this Saturday at 7pm, but it is unclear whether the match will be rescheduled, as has been the case in the past.

Watford: Bond; Yiadom, Fenwick, Oshodi (c), Angus (Thompson 90+2); Whichelow, Penny (Isaac 61), Brooks, Mingoia; Murray (Warburton 77), Massey. Subs not used: Irving, Otshudi.
