Man City vs Man United prediction and odds ahead of FA Cup Final clash

In a thrilling replay of last year's finale, Manchester City is set to face off against their fierce rivals Manchester United in the FA Cup final at Wembley this Saturday. The encounter promises to be a spectacle, reminiscent of last year’s match where former City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan led his team to victory with two decisive goals, culminating in a 2-1 win.

City go into this match as the clear favourites with Betfred at 1/3 while United are 8/1 longshots and a draw after 90 minutes is 4/1. The Cityzens have already picked up a league double over their rivals and will be looking to make a triple at Wembley Stadium.

Under Pep Guardiola's leadership, Manchester City has had a remarkable journey to the final, epitomized by a narrow 1-0 victory against Chelsea in the semi-finals. Having recently secured their fourth consecutive Premier League title, a historic achievement, City is now poised to potentially add another FA Cup trophy to their cabinet, aiming for back-to-back triumphs.

On the other hand, Manchester United has had a mixed season in the Premier League but managed to end on a high note with a 2-0 victory over Brighton. The route to the FA Cup final was not smooth for Erik ten Hag’s squad, who nearly saw disaster after squandering a 3-0 lead against Coventry. However, they secured their spot in the final after a tense penalty shootout.

As both teams prepare for this highly anticipated clash, fans and neutrals alike are eager to see if Manchester City can defend their title or if Manchester United will disrupt their plans and lift the trophy themselves. This match not only offers a chance for redemption but also an opportunity for both clubs to end their season on a definitive high note.
