The FA Cup final 2021/2022 Chelsea vs Liverpool in the 2021/2022 FA Cup final, Saturday (14/5/2022) night WIB. The match will be held at Wembley, London with kick-off at 22:45 WIB.
The two teams had previously met in the final this season, namely in the English League Cup. Last February 2022 at Wembley, they drew 0-0 but then Liverpool won on penalties 11-10.
Because of that, of course tomorrow's match will be targeted by Chelsea as a revans event. For Chelsea, the FA Cup is the only chance for the Blues to win a trophy this season.
Meanwhile, Liverpool itself is still continuing to live up to its ambition to win a quadruple aka four titles this season.
After winning the English League Cup, Liverpool have also qualified for the FA Cup and Champions League finals, and still have a big enough chance to win the Premier League title.
Chelsea and Liverpool have also met twice this season in the Premier League. Uniquely, the two teams drew 1-1 at Anfield and 2-2 at Stamford Bridge. In the League Cup final they also drew again, but Liverpool then won on penalties.
The last two finals between Chelsea and Liverpool have all gone to penalties, and Liverpool have always been the victors.
The first was the 2019 European Super Cup final, where they drew 2-2, then Liverpool won on penalties 5-4. The second is of course this season, where they fought in the League Cup final.
Regarding the latest form, Chelsea are getting good momentum after winning three goals without reply at Leeds United headquarters in the Premier League match this week.
This is the end of Chelsea's win famine, after failing to win in the previous three final matches.
However, Liverpool on the other hand is on fire. Jurgen Klopp's fleet has almost wiped out the last eight matches with a win.
A 2-1 win at Aston Villa in the Premier League match this midweek is of course also very good to continue to maintain the confidence of the Reds children.
