Chelsea will face Manchester City at Wembley Stadium in the 145th FA Cup Final on Saturday, with Callum MacFarlane’s Blues standing in the Citizens’ way of a rare domestic cup double.
After a hugely disappointing season, which saw Enzo Maresca and his successor, Liam Rosenior, sacked due to the Blues’ poor form, interim Chelsea boss MacFarlane has the opportunity to restore some pride and claim some silverware. The west London side have won just once since MacFarlane took charge last month – a semi-final win in that competition against Leeds – with defensive weaknesses remaining an issue for the Blues.
Meanwhile, City arrive at this final in good form after a 3-0 win over Crystal Palace in midweek – a result that keeps the pressure on Premier League leaders Arsenal. This win also means that a clean sweep of domestic titles remains for Pep Guardiola’s side, who lifted the English Football League Cup last March.
Chelsea faces Manchester City at Wembley Stadium, north of London Saturday 16 May. Kick off is set for 3pm GMT In the United Kingdom, it is 10 a.m. ET or 7 a.m. PT In the United States and Canada, and It’s 2am AEST Sunday in Australia.
Chelsea hopes to end a series of 13 matches without a win against Manchester City in today’s final.
