Everton striker Louis Saha is confident he is hitting peak form ahead of the FA Cup final later this month.

Saha scored twice in Saturday's 3-1 win over West Ham to boost his chances of making David Moyes' starting XI for the showpiece against Chelsea at Wembley.

The Frenchman has struggled to hold down a regular place in the side this season due to form and fitness, but the former Manchester United hit-man believes he is ready to lead the line against Chelsea.

"It's always nice, especially at home to score goals," Saha told the club's official website.

"It's really nice when you score goals and win games. I wanted to play some minutes so I could focus on my fitness. I think I'm getting there and, obviously, step-by-step you want to improve your game."

Saha insists Everton will not be letting up against Fulham next weekend despite the FA Cup final looming large on the horizon.

"We have to keep working hard as well as being really organised," added Saha. "Fulham are a really good team, they've shown that all season and they've been consistent."
