What channel is Chelsea vs Liverpool? Kick-off time, TV and live stream details
Chelsea and Liverpool meet for the second time at Wembley this season when they face off in the 2022 FA Cup final, as the Reds aim to keep alive their hopes of a famous quadruple
Liverpool chances of a quadruple could practically be over should Manchester City win their next game but they will be determined to keep them alive no matter what by securing the FA Cup trophy this weekend, in what is a rematch of the Carabao Cup final in February.
Chelsea are their opponents and are fighting for their last chance of silverware this season, as they look to get revenge on the Reds for that penalty shoot-out defeat at Wembley earlier this year.
Both sides were on their travels for some Premier League action in midweek, as Liverpool defeated Aston Villa 2-1 on Tuesday night, before Chelsea overcame Leeds United 3-0 just 24 hours later.
When is Chelsea vs Liverpool?
Chelsea vs Liverpool will kick-off at 4:45pm on Saturday, May 14 at Wembley Stadium.
The last meeting between these two sides came back in February, when the Reds defeated the Blues in a penalty shoot-out in the Carabao Cup final to secure their first trophy of the season.
Joël Matip’s disallowed goal in the 67th minute by VAR meant the two sides couldn’t be separated after 90 minutes and therefore forced extra time, where it still ended 0-0 after 120 minutes. A penalty shoot-out ensued, and Kepa Arrizabalaga missed Chelsea’s 11th penalty to allow Liverpool to win 11-10 in the shoot-out and claim the Carabao Cup.

Team news
Despite picking up a convincing 3-0 victory against Leeds on Wednesday, Thomas Tuchel will be expected to make one or two changes in order to freshen things up as his side look to taste FA Cup glory this season.
However, he could be without four players for this tie, especially if N’Golo Kante does not pass a late fitness test in time to feature. Mateo Kovacic (ankle) could very well be out for the rest of the season, along with Callum Hudson-Odoi (calf) and Ben Chilwell (knee).
