Manchester City

The "Citizens" have had an excellent season and despite fierce resistance from London's Arsenal, they finished at the top. Unfortunately, they couldn't replicate last year's success and win the Champions League. In the quarter-finals of the tournament, Guardiola's team was halted by Real Madrid.

Nevertheless, Manchester City has an excellent opportunity to add another trophy to their club museum, namely the FA Cup. On their way to the final match, Pep Guardiola's proteges defeated opponents such as Huddersfield (5:0), Tottenham (1:0), Luton (6:2), Newcastle (2:0), and Chelsea in the semifinals (1:0).

Manchester United

The "Red Devils" completely missed out on European competitions. Not to mention that the Mancunians managed to finish fourth in the Champions League group stage.

Thus, the only chance for them to make it to Europe remains winning the FA Cup final against Manchester City. It's worth noting that the road to the final for Manchester United was much easier than for their opponents. Essentially, the only top club they faced was Liverpool, whom "United" defeated at home with a score of 4:3. They also defeated Wigan (2:0), Newport (4:2), Nottingham (1:0), and Coventry in the semifinals (3:3 and a win in penalties).
