WHERE: Wembley Stadium, London (capacity 90,000)
WHEN: Saturday; noon ET, 5 p.m. UK (live on ESPN+)

BACKSTORY: This is Watford's second FA Cup final (35 years ago, they lost 2-0 to Everton) and for most of their history they've been a second-tier club, though since their most recent promotion to the Premier League in 2015 they've generally been solidly mid-table, finishing 11th this season.
