FA Cup Final predictions and tips Sat 14th May 2022

fa cup final

The stage is set for the 2022 FA Cup final, with Liverpool and Chelsea clashing at Wembley Stadium. In a repeat of the EFL Cup final back in February. We look ahead to the game and consider the best bets for a battle between two of the best teams in England.

Liverpool and Chelsea have already met three times this season:

Saturday 28 August 2021: Liverpool 1-1 Chelsea

Sunday 2 January 2022: Chelsea 2-2 Liverpool

Sunday 27 February 2022: Chelsea 0-0 Liverpool

As you can see, all three games ended in a draw. Chelsea were the better team at Anfield in the original meeting before Reece James was sent off. Conversely, Liverpool came out of the traps flying at Stamford Bridge to take a two-goal lead before getting pegged back for a 2-2 draw.

When the two teams met in the Carabao Cup final it was an even tussle and both sides had goals disallowed during normal time. The clash then went to extra-time before a crazy penalty shootout. Which saw Liverpool triumph 11-10 on penalties after Kepa was the only player to miss from the spot. Why not learn more about how to place a BTTS Acca bet with our free guide.

What Are the Best FA Cup Final Tips?

First thing’s first, Liverpool are not particularly good value to win the game.

After all, the head to head record this season illustrates that the teams have been evenly-matched on three occasions. Therefore, it’s hard to make a case for why the Reds are such strong favourites. Despite the fact that they’re still challenging for a quadruple.

While Liverpool have been the most consistent performers in England this season. We know that this Chelsea team are capable of pulling off a victory and we think that the draw is the best wager on the Full-Time Result market.

This outcome is trading at the biggest odds out of the three options on the W-D-W market. And there’s every chance that Chelsea will be able to nullify opponents who could be feeling the pinch after a long season.

On the correct score market, a 1-1 draw could be the way to go. Both sides have a strong defence that might only occasionally be breached, while our best idea of a First Goalscorer is Romelu Lukaku.

The Belgian might be leaving Stamford Bridge in the coming weeks although he has risen to the fore in the past couple of matches. Three goals in two games means that he could pose a real threat to the Liverpool defence.

What is the Best FA Cup Final Bet Builder?

It all depends on your point-of-view although we think that backing the draw allows for a big money Bet Builder to be placed on the FA Cup final.

Match to End in a Draw
Antonio Rudiger to be Booked
Romelu Lukaku to Score


Odds 40/1

This Bet Builder pays out at 40/1 at the time of writing. Rudiger already has thirteen yellow cards to his name this season and Lukaku looks to be the likeliest scorer for Chelsea. He found the net at Elland Road on Wednesday and could have scored a lot more.
