The FA Cup final takes place on Saturday when Liverpool and Chelsea go head to head at Wembley.
Chelsea find themselves in a Champions League final as well as the FA Cup so it could still prove to be a quite incredible season for The Blues.
Both Andre Villas Boas and Roberto Di Matteo have been in charge in this cup run, which has seen the London side score 18 goals in five matches.
The six time winners did require two legs against Birmingham after the Championship side managed a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge.
The highlight of their FA Cup run this season will most certainly be the 5-1 thrashing over London rivals Spurs in the semi-final at Wembley. Roberto Di Matteo’s side were fantastic that day and Didier Drogba scored a goal that was right out of the top drawer.
Chelsea have won this trophy three times in the last five years so will be confident of making it another successful day on Saturday.
As for Liverpool, they will be looking to add to their Carling Cup win earlier in the season. Kenny Dalglish’s side have not met expectations in the league this season, however another cup success this weekend would make up for a poor Premier League campaign.
The Reds have enjoyed a fairly comfortable journey in getting to the final, playing every game at home, except the semi-final which was at Wembley.
A 2-1 win over Manchester United in the fourth round will go down as a highlight with the Anfield faithful.
Luiz Suarez has score in each of the last three matches in the FA Cup, with the striker looking in great form he will certainly be a handful for Chelsea.
The Merseysiders last won the trophy back in 2006 after beating West Ham in one of the greatest final’s ever. Liverpool fans will certainly be looking for something similar this weekend.
