Chelsea vs Manchester United: FA Cup preview
This is a rematch of last year’s FA Cup final, when Chelsea ran out 3–0 winners over United at Wembley to complete their domestic treble.
Despite that defeat, it was still a hugely positive campaign for United, who finished runners-up in the Cup and secured European qualification through their league position.
Now, however, the gap between the two clubs feels narrower than ever. United currently sit above Chelsea in the WSL table and will believe they have every chance of dethroning the holders and the side who denied them in the 2023 and 2025 finals.
Between them, these teams have dominated the competition in recent years and are the most recent FA Cup winners.
United have reached the past three finals, and at least one of the pair has featured in the last five showpieces.
Marc Skinner’s United face the added challenge of a midweek Champions League knockout, while Sonia Bompastor’s Chelsea, having qualified automatically, do not.
Both sides eased through their fourth round ties with 5-0 victories and when these sides met in the WSL in October, there was nothing to separate them in a 1–1 draw.
On current form, there appears little between them again, but this time, there must be a winner.
FourFourTwo's prediction
Chelsea 1-2 Manchester United
It might not be considered an 'upset' based on the current WSL table, but given Chelsea’s status as holders and having a home tie, United will still be slight underdogs - but I’m backing them to edge it.
