Merson makes Chelsea v Liverpool prediction and names player Klopp 'could target' and exploit
Liverpool could target and exploit Chelsea’s Marcos Alonso during today’s FA Cup final, says pundit Paul Merson for Sportskeeda.
If this is anything like the EFL Cup final, we are in for a treat and it remains to be seen what both managers learn from that game and put into practice here.
Chelsea and Liverpool went toe to toe in February’s EFL Cup final, when the game somehow finished 0-0 despite a host of chances at both ends.
“Marcus Alonso has produced some big moments for Chelsea over the years, but he is a player Liverpool could target,” said Merson.
Prediction: Chelsea 2-1 Liverpool.”
Liverpool have not been at their best lately, but have been getting results, while Chelsea have kind of drifted since their Champions League exit.
“The Carabao Cup final ended 0-0, but the amount of chances created on the night was absolutely mindblowing.
Merson actually thinks that Chelsea will win the cup at Wembley and end Liverpool’s hopes of the quadruple, which ha been talked about all season.
