The FA Cup has a rich history of surprises, with the last major upset occurring in 2013 when Manchester City fell to Wigan Athletic. If City were to lose to Manchester United in the upcoming final at Wembley, it would mark one of the biggest shocks in recent memory.
Both teams have had contrasting seasons, with City making history by clinching their fourth consecutive league title. In contrast, United endured a disappointing campaign, finishing with their lowest Premier League position and a negative goal difference. The Red Devils also set unwanted records for the most losses in a season and have struggled in all competitions.
City’s dominance is evident in their impressive statistics, having lost only four matches throughout the season. On the other hand, United’s struggles have been apparent, with a significant gap in points, goals scored, and goals conceded between the two teams.
Despite the challenges ahead, Erik ten Hag remains optimistic about his team’s chances, emphasizing the fine margins that could make a difference in the final outcome. Football fans are eagerly anticipating the showdown between these two rivals, as the stage is set for an exciting and unpredictable FA Cup final.
