Manchester City take on Manchester United in the final match of English FA Cup. The match will be played on Saturday, June 3rd at Wembley (London).
Manchester City have been playing poorly in recent rounds. However, it is not fair to judge the form based on the 1-1 draw with Brighton or the 0-1 loss to Brentford. Firstly, they have once again secured the title in the Premier League - London's Arsenal has completely faded away by May and abandoned their claim for the gold. As a result, Guardiola and his team allowed themselves to relax a bit. The English giants have shown their real level by defeating Madrid's Real in the second leg of the main European cup. Currently, the Catalan manager and his staff are probably thinking more about the upcoming showdown with Inter for the victory in the Champions League. Especially since the English team is considered the favorite, and it would be hard to understand if they fail to defeat The Red Devils now. Although, of course, they would not refuse the cup either, but they won't push themselves too hard for it just a week before the final of the European cup.

Manchester United finished a very difficult and unsuccessful season a year ago. The response was to invite ten Hag. Eric's first year in Foggy Albion certainly wasn't cloudless. His personnel decisions resulted in a scandalous contract termination with Ronaldo. Moreover, Anthony, or rather his €100 million price tag paid to Ajax, is clearly featured in the rankings of worst transfers. They also suffered several defeats. It is worth mentioning the thrashing they received from Liverpool, and they bid farewell to the Europa League with a 0-3 loss to Sevilla, accompanied by terrible blunders. On the other hand, the main trump card is the result. And they have definitely achieved it - finishing in 3rd place in the Premier League, only behind City and Arsenal. They managed to finally distance themselves from The Reds just last week. Additionally, back in winter, Manchester United won the title by defeating Newcastle in the League Cup final. Now they have a chance to win an even more prestigious trophy. And, most importantly, they have approached the FA Cup match in practically optimal form. With a 2-1 victory over Fulham, Manchester United has already won four consecutive matches. However, their opponents were not the Cityzens - Wolverhampton, Bournemouth, Chelsea, and Fulham.
These are the Manchester derbies, and City has won three times in a row. Among them, there was a tennis score of 6-3 in October. But in January, Manchester United managed to respond with a victory, although not as impressive, with a score of 2-1. Guardiola will once again be the clear favorite in the new clash with Ten Hag. However, both clashes have been intense - let's believe that we will witness a total over 3.0 goals once again.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.0 scored goals.
