FA Cup: Liverpool vs Chelsea Prediction, Tickets and Betting Odds

FA Cup: Liverpool vs Chelsea Prediction, Tickets and Betting Odds: Liverpool will be starting as favorites when they take on Chelsea in the upcoming FA Cup finals. The latest predictions also favour a win for the Red Devils.

This Saturday, another exciting chapter will be added to the famous Chelsea-Liverpool rivalry when the two teams lock horns in the FA Cup final at the Wembley Stadium. It will be the sixteenth FA Cup final appearance for the Blues.

They have reached the final for the fifth time in the last six seasons, only missing out in 2019. Overall, Tuchel’s side has won the title 8 times. However, Chelsea failed to end the competition on a high note in recent times as they lost 5 of the last 6 deciders. They faced a 0-1 loss to Leicester City in the last season’s final. 

Liverpool has qualified for the FA Cup final after 10 years. They will aim to win the title for the 8th time when they meet the Blues on Saturday. The Reds have been in absolutely red-hot form over the past few months. A victory against Chelsea will add another feather to Jurgen Klopp’s cap.

He recently talked about leading his side to the finals of three knockout competitions of the Carabao Cup, FA Cup, and Champions League in a single season. Klopp said:

“There’s only one chance to win a final and that is to qualify for a final. That’s what we did so far, we played each game available. We went through all competitions until the last game, three of these competitions are not finished yet.”
