FA Final: Chelsea-Liverpool battles for title


Chelsea will face Liverpool in the FA Cup final at the Wembley stadium on Saturday, May 5.
Liverpool will be hoping to win their second trophy this season having already clinched the Carling cup in February.
However, Liverpool's league form has been wildly inconsistent in the current campaign and a home defeat to Fulham on Tuesday night means they have now dropped 30 points at Anfield.
Though Chelsea lost their last league game against Newcastle on Wednesday, their performance has been terrific since the interim coach, Roberto Di Matteo took over.
In the last four meetings between the two clubs, Liverpool has won all the games.
Nov 29, 2011 Chelsea 0-2 Liverpool (Carling Cup)
Nov 20, 2011 Chelsea 1-2 Liverpool (Premier League)
Feb 06, 2011 Chelsea 0-1 Liverpool (Premier League)
Nov 07, 2010 Liverpool 2-0 Chelsea (Premier League)
Liverpool defeated Oldham, Manchester United, Brighton and Stoke to get to the final while Chelsea defeated Portsmouth, Queens Park Rangers, Birmingham Leichester City and Tottenham to get to this stage.

Time: Saturday, May 5, 16:15 GMT
Venue: Wembley Stadium, London, England
