Chelsea and Manchester City face off in the FA Cup final on Saturday afternoon with Pep Guardiola’s side still in with a slight chance of landing a domestic treble.
City, who have already won the Carabao Cup this season, can land the FA Cup at Wembley on Saturday before turning their attention back to the Premier League as they hope to snatch the title out of Arsenal’s grasp.
Guardiola’s men, who are two points behind the Gunners with two games remaining, are appearing in their fourth consecutive FA Cup final – a feat never achieved by any side before – and a victory on Saturday would see them lift the trophy for the eighth time.
The Spaniard will be hoping for better results than the last couple of years after he watched City lose against Manchester United and Crystal Palace in 2024 and 2025 respectively.
Chelsea, who sit ninth in the Premier League after losing six of their last seven games, are appearing in their 17th FA Cup final and they’re desperate to win the trophy for a ninth time to salvage a poor season for the Blues.
Interim manager Calum McFarlane will be in the dugout and he’ll be hoping to end their dismal run in FA Cup finals which has seen Chelsea lose in their last three appearances at the Wembley showpiece.
