Thomas Tuchel, the Chelsea manager, was pleased with his side's performance in the semi-finals and he is now looking to clinch his maiden trophy in England.
"It was a very, very strong performance. I'm very happy and very proud - we played an excellent 35 minutes in the first half," Tuchel said.
"We had to suffer ten minutes of some easy ball losses and the quality from City, but we played another half an hour so strongly. We deserved to win and it could have been one-goal higher.
"The last 15 minutes we suffered a lot because they played with a lot of risk and many offensive players, and we were becoming a bit tired. But it was a very strong performance and I'm very happy for my team."
The last competitive meeting between Chelsea and Leicester was on 19 January 2021.
The game ended in a 2-0 win in favour of Leicester in a Premier League match which took place at the King Power Stadium.
