The 145th FA Cup final could be Pep Guardiola's last shot at silverware as Manchester City manager.
Chelsea, in crisis for much of the campaign, stand between him and a 20th trophy with the club.
A season that promised so much has turned into a nightmare for the Stamford Bridge outfit. Enzo Maresca's departure as head coach in January triggered a tumultuous spell under Liam Rosenior, marked by significant decline in performance and professionalism among several players in the squad.
Yet under interim head coach Calum McFarlane, Chelsea edged past Leeds in the semi-finals, and last weekend's 1-1 draw at Liverpool showed signs of rekindled spirit. McFarlane was also in charge in January – in his first interim spell after Maresca's exit - when the Blues snatched a 1-1 draw at City.
Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez missed the Liverpool game with concussion but could return. Pedro Neto and Alejandro Garnacho are doubts. Estevao, Jesse Derry and are all out.
Pep Guardiola is seeking his 20th trophy with Manchester City, making this final potentially his last chance for silverware.
Chelsea has experienced a significant decline in performance following the departure of head coach Enzo Maresca, leading to a crisis within the team.
Key stats for the final include Manchester City's pursuit of a trophy under Guardiola and Chelsea's tumultuous season marked by managerial changes.

As shown in the graphic below, either Chelsea or City have been involved in each of the last nine FA Cup finals. However, they have had limited success with City winning twice and Chelsea just once.

Although it would be foolish to rule out Chelsea, there is no doubt City are the big favourites.
Guardiola's side may come up just short in the Premier League title race – they are two points behind Arsenal with two games to play – but a domestic cup double is a rare feat; this would only be the sixth time this has ever happened.
City will also be keen to right the wrongs of the last two seasons, in which they've lost two FA Cup finals in timid fashion.
A year ago, they were beaten by Crystal Palace after Eberechi Eze's goal and Omar Marmoush's saved penalty. In 2024, local rivals Manchester United stunned Guardiola's side.
Guardiola, who has been linked with an end-of-season exit for much of the campaign, will not want to sign off his time at City with just a fourth major final loss with the club. After a raft of changes to the team for Wednesday's clash with Palace in the Premier League, a win under the Wembley arch now looks to be the clear priority.
However, Guardiola has confirmed that Rodri remains a doubt for the game. He has not played since the win over Arsenal on April 19.
