An English football classic on the cards

Liverpool’s hunt for an unprecedented quadruple is still on but they have been dealt a major blow in the Premier League with the Cityzens now very much in control. It seems the effect of playing every single game they were eligible for this season has finally caught up with them and this was pretty evident in their second leg UCL semifinals tie against Villarreal in which they had the come back to book a spot in the final. Said major blow was delivered against Spurs last weekend as the North London club held the Reds to a 1-1 stalemate. They did bounce back with a comeback victory against Aston Villa during the week- Matip and Mane on the scoresheet- but Pep’s troops still have a healthy three-point lead heading into the final two games. The FA Cup trophy is one that has eluded Klopp all through his tenure as the Liverpool and having gone through Shrewsbury, Cardiff, Norwich, Nottingham Forest and then Manchester City to book a spot in the final, they don’t have any added motivation to do what is necessary.

The reigning European and World Champions have had problems off the pitch and this seems to have rubbed off on the players’ performances on it. They head into this game with just two wins in their last six matches in all competitions but their star striker Romelu Lukaku might have just picked up his form at the right time. The Belgian striker, with his brace in the draw against Wolves last weekend, netted to clincher in their 3-0 triumph away at Leeds United during the midweek fixtures. With third place in the Premier League now all but secured, Thomas Tuchel is looking to add the FA Cup trophy to his Champions League and Club World Cup triumphs. The Blues have been heartbroken I’m the last two FA Cup finals losing to Arsenal in 2020 before a Youri Tielemans scorcher clinched the title for Leicester City at their expense during the period last year. Would the third time be the charm for the Blues this time around ?
