For Chelsea, the FA Cup represents the only piece of domestic silverware left on the line this season as they look to end the campaign on a high.

And for Liverpool, the FA Cup is one of four trophies up for grabs for them this season after already securing the League Cup after overcome Chelsea on penalties.

While the Reds are three points adrift of Manchester City, in the race for the Premier League title, they will also face Real Madrid in the Champions League final.

And if Jurgen Klopp’s men overcome Chelsea in today’s final, it will be their first FA Cup title since 2006 where they triumphed against West Ham on penalties.

A Steven Gerard long range volley in second half stoppage time, completed a stunning comeback for Liverpool which dragged the game to extra time.

And since Liverpool last got their hands on the cup 16 years ago, Chelsea have triumphed in the 2007, 2009, 2010, 2012 and 2018 editions.

They even beat Liverpool in the final of the 2012 edition and will be eyeing a revenge this time around.
