Chelsea are aiming for more silverware under Enzo Maresca when they travel to Cardiff City in the quarterfinals of the EFL Cup.
The Blues lifted the UEFA Conference League and FIFA Club World Cup last season, although a morale boost might be in order following their recent form.
Saturday's 2-0 win at home to Everton ended a four-game winless run across all competitions that has seen Chelsea fall away from pacesetters in the Premier League
Cardiff were finalists in the competition in 2012, losing to Liverpool on penalties. The League One leaders are the only club outside of the Premier League remaining in the draw.
