Chelsea vs. Leicester City Live Stream: Watch FA Cup Online, TV Channel, Lineups
Leicester City will be looking for its first-ever FA Cup triumph but Chelsea will have its sights set on a late-season double in Saturday's FA Cup final at Wembley Stadium.
After Chelsea denied Manchester City a chance at the quadruple in the FA Cup semifinals, the Blues will also face the Premier League winners in the Champions League final May 29. However, their more pressing business comes in avenging their 2019-20 FA Cup final loss to Arsenal this past August with a second chance at a ninth FA Cup trophy.
Third-place Leicester City stands in the way, 53 years removed from its last FA Cup final, after having lost all four of its FA Cup final appearances. Brendan Rodgers' side is coming off a galvanizing 2-1 win over Manchester United that brings it one step closer to qualifying for next season's Champions League.
