What time is the FA Cup final 2023? Kick-off time, date and TV channel
Your guide to the FA Cup final in 2023 including date, kick-off time and TV coverage details.
The FA Cup final has arrived with Manchester City and Manchester United ready to go toe-to-toe at Wembley for silverware.
All other teams have fallen by the wayside on the long and winding road to the final, and now the two great Manchester clubs will slog it out, Pep Guardiola versus Erik ten Hag, Erling Haaland versus Marcus Rashford.
Each side has lifted a trophy already this season. City hoisted the Premier League trophy once again, while United lifted the Carabao Cup following victory over Newcastle at Wembley earlier in 2023.
Liverpool were last season's FA Cup winners after a dramatic penalty shootout against Chelsea, however, Jurgen Klopp's team were unsuccessful in their title defence after crashing out to Brighton in the fourth round.
Fans will be readying their tin-foil trophies for the trip to Wembley for one of the biggest dates on the football calendar with a huge rivalry for the nation to savour.
