The FA Cup culminates in an exciting final between two arch-rivals this weekend as Manchester United lock horns with Pep Guardiola's impressive Manchester City side in a crucial clash at the Wembley Stadium on Saturday.
Manchester City vs Manchester United Preview
Manchester United are finished in third place in the Premier League standings and have been fairly impressive under Erik ten Hag this season. The Red Devils edged Fulham to a 2-1 victory in their previous game and will need to work hard to achieve a similar result this weekend.
Manchester City, on the other hand, won the Premier League title yet again this season and are one of the best teams in world football at the moment. The Cityzens slumped to a disappointing 1-0 defeat at the hands of Brentford last week and will look to bounce back in this fixture.
