Under the terms of the loan agreement with Queens Park Rangers for Michael Mancienne, Michael has permission to play in the FA Cup for QPR, however the player is not permitted to play against Chelsea in the competition.
Both Scott Sinclair and Ben Sahar's loans at QPR finish before the FA Cup third round tie at Stamford Bridge in January.
Mancienne, who is spending a second season gaining first team experience at Loftus Road, has made 12 appearances this campaign.
However, the England Under 21 international defender missed QPR's game on Saturday having suffered a hamstring strain during a midweek match.
Sinclair and Sahar did both start at Blackpool on Saturday. Sinclair scored in his second game for his loan club and has started five times. Sahar has also begun five games with a further three substitute appearances but has yet to find the net. Chelsea

QPR Official Site LEE CAMP - CAMP RELISHING BLUES TIE
Posted on: Sun 02 Dec 2007
Queens Park Rangers have been drawn against local rivals Chelsea in the FA Cup third round.
The R's will make the short trip to Stamford Bridge in early January after today's draw pitted them with Avram Grant's Premiership outfit, who are the current FA Cup holders.
Speaking exclusively to www.qpr.co.uk, goalkeeper Lee Camp expressed his delight at the draw: "It is without doubt the tie all the fans were looking for.
"It is a great opportunity for the players at this Football Club to pit their wits against not only some of the best players in England, but also the world.
"When it comes around at the start of the New Year, it will probably be the biggest game of my club career.
"However, we can't get too distracted just yet. We've got some vitally important League fixtures to focus on."
The last time the R's faced Chelsea at The Bridge was in March 1996, when the sides drew 1-1 in the Premiership.
Two months earlier, the Blues had knocked Rangers out of the FA Cup in the fourth round." QPR
