Cesar Azpilicueta is urging Chelsea to finish the season on a high note following a torrid first half to the campaign.

Chelsea have most certainly made a good recovery since the appointment of Guus Hiddink as manager and while the Blues are still a long way away from a Champions League spot, there is a sense of positivity at Stamford Bridge once again.

Now Chelsea prepare for a blockbuster encounter against rivals Manchester United this weekend and ahead of the game, defender Azpilicueta is hopeful that the reigning Premier League champions can finish the campaign in a strong fashion by going on a good run and possibly claiming either the Champions League or FA Cup.

The Spaniard told Chelsea's official website: "It will be a hard match. They are a team who keep the ball and won their last match well. They are a good team with very good players.

"We have confidence to win all our matches. That's our objective before every match. We are playing at home and we will go for the three points.

"We have three competitions to play for: the FA Cup, the Champions League and the league, where we want to finish as well as possible."
