Manchester United are big outsiders to win the FA Cup this weekend as they go up against Manchester City
It's FA Cup Final weekend and we've got another Manchester Derby in the final after last year saw Manchester City beat Manchester United 2-1 at Wembley.
That win saw City win their second trophy out of the three they would win in what was an historic treble winning campaign and they'll be hoping to win on Saturday to complete the double this season.
Erik ten Hag and his Manchester United side though will be desperate to stop that but bookmakers put them as big outsiders in the match to lift the trophy with their odds currently at 4/1.
United will be expecting a tough game against the in-form City but will take positives going into this one after winning the last two games of the season themselves against Newcastle and Brighton respectively.
Bet365's latest betting market puts City in the driving seat with their odds of lifting the FA Cup this weekend now sitting at 1/6, with a 90 minute win for Pep Guardiola's side at 1/3.
| FA Cup Winner 2023/24 | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Manchester City | 1/6 | 85.7% |
| Manchester United | 4/1 | 20.0% |
What the expert says..
City are heavily odds-on to win the cup against United for the second year in-a-row
Guardiola's Man City side will go into this Saturday's FA Cup Final with massive confidence having won their fourth league title in-a-row last Sunday.
City have ended the season in style with 9 consecutive wins in the league following their 0-0 draw against Arsenal back in March which ended in them lifting the Premier League title.
Last season's FA Cup Final saw City take the lead over United after just 13 seconds thanks to a worldie from Ilkay Gundogan and they dominated the rest of the game as much as you possibly can in a 2-1 victory.
Bookies also offering odds on who could be next United manager with Erik ten Hag's position under threat
Further betting odds are also offered on who will be the next Manchester United manager with weekly reports released that Erik ten Hag's role is under threat.
Ten Hag is coming up to his second season finishing and an FA Cup victory could be the only thing that keeps him in a job going into next season.
Mauricio Pochettino is the favourite to head to Old Trafford next with bookies putting him straight into the top of the market after he left Chelsea earlier this week.
Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna is 3/1 second favourite in the odds list with a 25% chance he returns to United after previously being Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's assistant manager.
| Next Manchester United Manager | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Mauricio Pochettino | 5/4 | 44.4% |
| Kieran McKenna | 3/1 | 25.0% |
| Thomas Tuchel | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| Roberto De Zerbi | 6/1 | 14.3% |
