Crystal Palace vs. Man City live score: FA Cup final result, updates, stats from Wembley
WEMBLEY STADIUM, LONDON — Manchester City are in the FA Cup final for a third consecutive season and seeking to lift the famous old trophy for the eighth time in their history.
Crystal Palace, by contrast, are seeking a first-ever major honour, having twice fallen short in this showpiece against Manchester United in 1990 and 2016.
Kevin De Bruyne has been a standout player of this era in English football and will hope to sign off from his decorated City career with one more winner's medal.
On the other side of the equation is a talented Palace side, for whom England internationals Marc Guehi, Eberechi Eze and Adam Wharton are once again set to be the subject of transfer speculation this summer.
As City's pitiful 0-0 draw at Southampton last weekend underlined, Oliver Glasner's team have a chance to accomplish something special.

45 mins before kickoff: The Palace team, by contrast, is exactly what you'd expect. Adam Wharton has been passed fit to start in central midfield, where he might end up with quite a bit of room. But it's also the XI Guardiola will have expected and his City line-up suggests he's spotted something. Will that prove to be the case or will an unfamiliar City side find themselves measuring up to a very well-grooved Palace squad and face the consequences?
