There are already plenty of reasons to be excited about the 2024 FA Cup final between Manchester City and Manchester United as the local rivals prepare to renew hostilities for the 193rd time at Wembley this weekend.
When Premier League champions City play United on Saturday (live at 10 a.m ET, on ESPN+), it will be the first time in history that the same two English clubs have met in consecutive FA Cup finals and the first time since the late 1800s, when Blackburn Rovers and Scottish side Queen's Park came face to face, back-to-back, that it's happened at all.
