Overview
- Manchester City meet Chelsea in the FA Cup final, which kicks off at 3pm on Saturday at Wembley with TV coverage on BBC One, TNT Sports and HBO Max.
- City arrive on a strong run with eight wins in nine and they already hold the League Cup, putting a domestic cup double within reach.
- Chelsea enter under caretaker Calum McFarlane after a poor league stretch and a run of six straight domestic cup final defeats since their 2018 FA Cup win.
- Team news points to late boosts and doubts as Chelsea expect goalkeeper Robert Sanchez back while Jesse Derry is out and Pedro Neto and Alejandro Garnacho are uncertain, and City have Josko Gvardiol back with Ruben Dias available and a possible return for Rodri.
- Erling Haaland has scored freely this season yet has not found the net in nine finals for City, and betting markets reflect City’s edge with prices around 8/11 to win in 90 minutes and 4/11 to lift the trophy, alongside headline new‑customer promos.
