Manchester City and Crystal Palace clash in the FA Cup final at Wembley as the Eagles dream of winning their first major honour.
Palace have been beaten in two FA Cup finals, in the 1990 replay against Manchester United and against the same opposition in 2016 after extra time.
For City, who are far more accustomed to winning silverware under Pep Guardiola, their motivation is salvaging a season that star striker Erling Haaland described as “horrific” this week.
Palace have their own threats and Oliver Glasner’s side will look to England international Eberechi Eze, France striker Jean-Philippe Mateta and midfielder Adam Wharton for inspiration on a potentially historic day.
Kevin De Bruyne, meanwhile, will be hoping to sign off his legendary City career with one last trophy before the Belgian great departs the club in the summer.
