The FA Cup final takes centre stage today as Manchester City and Chelsea face off for the first time in the competition's showpiece.
Chelsea haven't beaten Pep Guardiola's men since their Champions League triumph in 2021, and are looking to salvage something for a season that has taken a dramatic downward turn since January.
City, however, can add a second domestic cup to their season's work as they appear in their fourth final in a row, hoping to banish the demons of the last two defeats to Manchester United and then Crystal Palace last year.

For former skipper Richard Dunne, he's backing his former club to get the job done at Wembley and add the FA Cup to the Carabao Cup thet won back in March.
"I think Man City’s best chance of winning silverware still this season will come in the FA Cup," Dunne exclusively told DAZN News, thanks to BetGoodwin.
"I do fancy them to win here and Haaland will look to score his first major goal in a final. City have had some issues early on this season, been since March, Pep has found the team which works well for him and City have looked strong with Doku, Cherki and Semenyo all contributing well.
"I also think the ending to the season will encourage Pep that he can win another title with City, so stay on as Head Coach for next season.
"I also think Nico Reilly has a massive future and believe he can have a big game this weekend in the FA Cup Final."

Of course, as well as the FA Cup, City still have hopes of reclaiming the Premier League title in their final two games of the season. They sit two points behind Arsenal with games against Bournemouth and Aston Villa to come, and will be hoping to pounce on any mistakes by the Gunners.
Yet, Dunne believes following Arsenal's dramatic win over West Ham last week, the title will now probably end up in North London.
"Not now, I don’t think," he added when asked if he still thought there was a chance for his old club.
"After Arsenal’s 1-0 win over West Ham, and with the last-minute VAR decision going against West Ham, it now looks very likely that Arsenal will be able to get over the line and win their first title in a long time.
"I think the decision to disallow the goal was harsh, in such a big game as well, I thought it was a soft decision by VAR to disallow the goal. When you look at a decision so many times, I believe you will always find a way to chalk it off.
"So, there are lots of holding going on in the penalty area on both sides, so it’s a very soft decision. I expect Arsenal to win their two remaining games, and that will see them win the title this season."
