Manchester United will face Manchester City in the final of the 142nd edition of the FA Cup at Wembley Stadium on Saturday.

Erik Ten Hag’s Man United, on the other hand, will do its best to stop Man City from not only winning its second title of the season but also protect its record of being the only English team to win the treble- Premier League, FA Cup and the Champions League.
