FA Cup Final tickets are like gold dust to fans from participating clubs. This year’s game takes place this year on May 25, and it will bring the curtain down on another fantastic domestic season.
Wembley Stadium, the ‘Home of Football,’ will, as usual, host the end-of-season showpiece, and even with a 90,000 capacity – the biggest stadium in the country – there are likely to still not be enough seats to go round.
With plenty to do outside the ground too supporters can make a day of it, and such is the lure of the world’s oldest cup competition, that it still hasn’t lost any of its shine.
Only three finals have ended goalless; the 1911 final between Bradford City and Newcastle United, the 2005 final between Arsenal and Manchester United, and the 2022 final between Liverpool and Chelsea.
Which teams will play in the 2024 FA Cup Final?
This season’s competition is currently at the semi-final stage. Last season’s finalists, Manchester City and Manchester United could make it to consecutive FA Cup finals, which would be the first time since the 1884 and 1885 seasons that the feat has been achieved.
Pep Guardiola’s side are in great form and top the Premier League table outright after surprising recent defeats for Liverpool and Arsenal to Crystal Palace and Aston Villa respectively.
Man United on the other hand are playing as if wading through treacle at the moment and all is not well at Old Trafford with Alejandro Garnacho liking some tweets that criticised manager Erik ten Hag in the wake of a draw at Bournemouth.
On those occasions, towards the end of the century before last, Blackburn Rovers and Queen’s Park contested the finals.
City face a resurgent Chelsea in their semi-final whilst Championship side, Coventry City, managed by former Man United player Mark Robins, stand in the way of the Red Devils making it back to Wembley.
