Manchester City continue their hunt for a treble as they face Manchester United in the 2023 FA Cup final on Saturday, June 3.
The Citizens secured the first of their potential three trophies after beating Arsenal to the Premier League title, and they could complete the impressive feat by June 10 when they play Inter Milan in the Champions League final.
The Red Devils on the other hand are going for a domestic cup double following their EFL Cup win back in February. This will be the final game of Erik ten Hag's first season in charge.
