Crystal Palace and Manchester United will bring the curtain down on the English football season as they do battle in the FA Cup final at Wembley on Saturday afternoon.
It’s been a season Eagles fans won’t be happy with. Having started strongly, their form tailed off in the second half of the campaign, winning just two league matches. The road to the FA Cup final is however a different story as Alan Pardew’s men saw off heavyweights like Tottenham Hotspur and Southampton.
The Eagles have won their last three matches at Wembley and are victorious in six of their last seven FA Cup ties against Premier League opposition. They are (5.25) with Nairabet for a maiden title.
This season has equally been a disappointing for Louis van Gaal with Premier League, Champions League and Europa League contention all fall out of his gasp. Winning this competition is the only thing that could remove the blemish. United haven’t recorded FA Cup success since 2004 and were victorious against this same side in the 1990 edition in which Pardew played. The Red Devils are favourites at (1.35) with the same firm for a record equalling 12th title.
A draw stands at (3.60).
United have won 15 of their last 20 games against the Eagles. They are (2.45) to win to nil. With a fit back line bar Luke Shaw at Van Gaal’s disposal, his side are (1.95) to keep a cleansheet.
Anthony Martial has been involved in six of the Red Devils 12 FA Cup goals this season. The Frenchman who will finish this campaign as top marksman is (2.95) with Nairabet to score anytime.
Marcus Rashford has been a revelation since making his first team debut against FC Mitdjylland in the Europa League back in February. The teenage sensation has scored eight goals from just 14 shots on target in all competitions.
