Who are the favourites to win the 2022/23 FA Cup?
Reigning Premier League champions Manchester City are 7/2 best price favourites to lift the FA Cup trophy at Wembley on Saturday 3rd June.
Despite their dominance of the Carabao Cup under Pep Guardiola (four titles in the last five years), the Spaniard has seen his team prevail just once in England's oldest cup competition - secured with a 6-0 thumping of Watford in the 2018/19 final.
They have failed to reach the final in the three subsequent seasons, with the trophy going the way of Arsenal, Leicester and Liverpool. Chelsea have been the beaten finalists in each of those years, losing 6-5 on penalties to Jurgen Klopp’s side in the 2021/22 final.

David Moyes (6/1 second favourite in the next manager to leave market) will be hoping to find some FA Cup respite to the Hammers’ poor league form at Brentford.
