Manchester City face a stern test in their next step towards the treble as they meet rivals Manchester United in the 2023 FA Cup final.

Pep Guardiola's side won the Premier League and are in the Champions League final, where they will face Inter Milan. The Citizens have won a domestic treble before, but they have never won Europe's elite club competition.

Manchester United's Erik ten Hag could also win a domestic double after securing the Carabao Cup back in February. It has not been an easy debut season for the Dutch manager, but a return to the Champions League along with two trophies would certainly constitute a success, and stopping City from matching United's treble feat of 1999 would make him even more popular among fans.

The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of the 2023 FA Cup final.
