Chelsea are back in action this weekend with a crucial fixture as they take on Brendan Rodgers' Leicester City in the FA Cup final at Wembley Stadium on Saturday. Both Premier League sides have been impressive over the past month and will want to win their first trophy of the season this weekend.
Chelsea are in fourth place in the Premier League standings and face intense competition from Liverpool from a place in the UEFA Champions League this year. The Blues have been a resurgent force under Thomas Tuchel and will want to put this week's defeat at the hands of Arsenal behind them as they go into this important encounter.
Leicester City are in third place in the league table at the moment but have been plagued by bouts of inconsistency in recent weeks. The Foxes can be lethal on their day and their penchant for big games holds them in good stead ahead of this fixture.
