Chelsea vs Leicester Team News
Following an active summer transfer window, where Chelsea splashed the clash on a number of high-profile players, many expected the club to have a go at the PL title. On paper, they seemed capable of winning almost everything available to them.However, under the tutelage of erstwhile manager Frank Lampard, the Blues failed to make any major progress. In fact, they had been languishing outside of the European qualification places before the English gaffer was relieved of his duties earlier in the year.
Now, with Thomas Tuchel in the dugout, Chelsea seem like completely different beasts, devouring almost every opposition standing in their way. Well on-course to finishing in the elite top-four mix, the Pensioners also have a priceless ticket to the Champions League final.
In addition to that, they have a chance of lifting the English FA Cup – a title that has eluded them for quite some time now. It is fair to say that the West London outfit are finally living up to their massive pre-season expectations.
Chelsea brushed past Man City in the competition’s semifinals to advance to the last-two, thanks to a clutch 55th-minute effort from Hakim Ziyech. Surely, they will be hoping for more of the same in this weekend’s contest.
Just like fellow cup finalists, Leicester are pulling in their weight in the PL, to grab a Champions League place before season-end, and are just one win away from sealing their place in the prestigious tournament. It goes without saying that this side have been the surprise packages in England so far.
Having gone five years without silverware, it would do the Foxes a world of good, should they manage to sweep Chelsea aside to claim the FA Cup. Rodgers will need the likes of Tielemans, Iheanacho and Vardy to hit top-gear to cause the Blues’ resilient defense a couple of problems.
Injured or Suspended Players
Chelsea: Mateo Kovacic and Charly Musonda Jr.Leicester: Wes Morgan, James Justin and Jonny Evans.

Chelsea vs Leicester Predictions
On the last matchday, Chelsea struggled to make in-roads through Arsenal’s sturdy three-man defense, and were ultimately undone by some defensive error. And with Leicester prepared to deploy a similar tactic, we are well setup for a beauty of a game at Wembley.This has all the makings of an intriguing FA Cup final clash. Though momentum is with the Blues ahead of this clash, Rodgers’ men are more than capable of staging upset. As we cannot separate both sides, our wager is on both teams hitting the target.
