Confident Garcia believes final in balance

With several defeats for the Stamford Bridge side in recent weeks, including yesterdays loss to Barca, Garcia believes that on the day, the Reds are good enough to lift the cup.

Garcia said: "We have shown Liverpool are not a long way behind Chelsea in the two games we have played this season but the points difference in the table shows they have been more consistent than us."

"We have played very well in one game, then lost the next. Chelsea have been a lot more consistent throughout the season, they are a good side, but so are we," he added.
