FA Cup Final 2022 Prediction

Liverpool start favourites with the depth in their squad and on current form, they are unbeatable, but if there is one team that has been able to frustrate Jurgen Klopp's men, it is Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea, who will look to hit on the counter attack.

This cup final like the EFL Cup final earlier this year may also go into extra time and if needed penalties if the Chelsea defence click against the high-flying Reds forwards, who have found goal-scoring a little hard in the last few matches. However, the well-rested Mohamed Salah may come to haunt his former side.
