It's FA Cup final day at Wembley, and we're set for a blockbuster showdown between Manchester City and Chelsea. For Pep Guardiola's side, this is a chance to make history—and finally shake off that runners-up tag.

City are the first team ever to reach four consecutive FA Cup finals, but they've lost the last two. After lifting the Carabao Cup in March with a 2-0 win over Arsenal, Guardiola's men are hunting a domestic double. And with a potential treble still mathematically alive—though the Premier League title race is Arsenal's to lose—every trophy matters.

But Chelsea won't be pushovers. Despite a season that's gone off the rails—their only wins in the last 12 matches across all competitions have come in the FA Cup—the Blues have shown signs of fight. Interim boss Calum McFarlane masterminded a 1-1 draw at the Etihad earlier this season, and they held Liverpool to the same scoreline at Anfield last week.

History adds another layer of intrigue. Chelsea are eight-time FA Cup winners, one ahead of City in the all-time rankings. But City haven't beaten English opposition since January's Manchester derby, and Guardiola is chasing his 20th trophy with the club.

Here's everything you need to know ahead of kickoff at Wembley:
