The home side might be missing John Terry and possibly Ashley Cole but they have quality players to come in and they are not top of the Premier League for nothing.
Cardiff are struggling to make up a squad with injuries in midweek to McPhail, Blake and Bothroyd added to the missing Ledley, Rae and more.
It's possible the City squad will have a couple of youth players making up the numbers. But Jones is looking forward to mixing it with the big boys.
"As soon as Chelsea was drawn out, I just thought that it was going to be us," Jones said today.
"All of your big clubs, your Arsenals, Liverpools and Manchester Uniteds, have gone out.
"So if you want to pick a big club, you're looking at Chelsea.
"We know they've got some fantastic players, not just some, but their squad is littered with fantastic players."
Jones has not written off his team's chances and he hopes the supporters enjoy their day as well.
"It will be a great occasion for this club to go and play Chelsea," he added.
"If we play to our potential, we have a chance.
"It's a great day our for the supporters and it will be a great day out for us if we get a result."
