Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud insists they can win at Liverpool tonight.

Giroud is certain Chelsea are capable of matching Liverpool on the pitch on the night, just they we did for that 2-0 victory at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup fifth round in March.

"On one game we can beat them," said the French striker to chelseafc.com. "With confidence, we are playing our game with freedom and desire to be together and focus on the same target. So on the whole season, obviously they have been much better, but on one game you never know.

"We beat them this year and we have high expectations for the end of the season. So we just want to finish the job. It's going to be a very tough one, don't get me wrong, but we have the qualities to win this game.

"It's going to be a good one, a tough one, especially because they have had a few disappointing results recently and they will lift the trophy after our game. I think they will want to bounce back. So I don't think it is the best period to play them.

"But we definitely need three more points to help secure a place in the Champions League, so we will play both our Premier League games at 100 per cent. Against Wolves it is going to be tough too because they are still involved in the Europa League race. So it's going to be tough, but we are in good momentum and we want to keep it up."
