City, fresh from celebrating their historic fourth successive Premier League title, face a United side sore from finishing way back in eighth place.
Pep Guardiola insists Manchester City’s “obvious” recent superiority over arch-rivals Manchester United will count for nothing in the FA Cup final.
Chasing back-to-back domestic doubles and a repeat victory over United after last season’s success, City are overwhelming favourites.Yet Guardiola is taking nothing for granted. “I understand that but it’s a different competition, one game. It can be 10 against 11, bad decisions, mistakes, whatever – and you can lose a game. We know we can lose a game.
“But in one game, anything can happen. The players know it and feel it. So I hope we are ready to play the last game of the season and to try to win the FA Cup.Guardiola has now won 17 trophies since taking charge at City in 2016.Despite success becoming the norm at the Etihad Stadium, he maintains there is nothing routine about it and there are still nerves before big games.
