Chelsea can expect to have supporters at their FA Cup semi-final against Crystal Palace despite sanctions placed on owner Roman Abramovich.
Blues fans were unable to buy any tickets for the FA Cup quarter-final win at Middlesbrough beyond those purchased prior to the imposition of sanctions.
But the FA is in talks with the UK government over amendments that will allow supporters to buy tickets for the semi-final at Wembley.
"We hope to have sell-out crowds at both of our Emirates FA Cup semi-finals at Wembley Stadium," an FA spokesperson said.
"This includes tickets for Chelsea supporters for their match against Crystal Palace, and we are working with the government on a method to achieve this whilst respecting the sanctions that are currently in place on Chelsea."
