Chelsea midfielder Juan Mata has insisted that he will not tire, despite a heavy fixture schedule for the former English champions.

Roberto Di Matteo's side are due to go head to head with Liverpool for the second time in four days following their FA Cup triumph over the Reds at Wembley on Saturday.

The Blues must snatch three points at Anfield in order to try to claim the fourth spot in the Premier League table, with Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur both vying for the same position.

"I have plenty of energy left," said Mata. "It is a long season and my first in England, but the benefits of winning easily outweigh the fatigue.

"It's a hard stadium to play away at. Liverpool showed they have a great team and they are dangerous at Anfield. We have to win and still believe in playing the Champions League next year."

Depending on next weekend's results, Chelsea's hopes of playing in Europe's elite competition next season may rely solely on the outcome of the final against Bayern Munich on May 19.
