Arsenal vs Chelsea: FA Cup final preview
Despite 2019/20 being a turbulent season for Arsenal they have found respite in the FA Cup with all five victories in this year’s competition coming under new boss Mikel Arteta. They were outplayed for much of their third round tie with Leeds United but did enough to secure a 1-0 win, before dispatching Bournemouth and Portsmouth to reach the quarter-finals. A 2-1 victory over Sheffield United was their first in the new 3-4-3 formation that has served them so well in recent weeks. But their most impressive performance came in the semi-final when they knocked out holders Manchester City thanks to a Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang brace.
Chelsea have had the tougher journey to the final, knocking out three of the Premier League’s top five on their way to Wembley. Victories over Nottingham Forest and Hull City were followed with an impressive win over champions elect Liverpool to compound the Red’s mid-season wobble. A narrow victory over Leicester City saw them through to the semi-final where they beat a Manchester United side who had won six of their previous seven matches.
Both managers have tasted FA Cup success as a player with their respective clubs but neither have lifted a trophy in their fledgling managerial careers. Mikel Arteta was a part of the Arsenal squad who were victorious in 2013/14 and 2014/15 under Arsene Wenger and he will want to add to the Gunners’ record haul of 13 FA Cups. During his 13 years as a Chelsea player Frank Lampard lifted the trophy four times, winning the domestic double in 2009/10.

Some say, based on squad Chelsea is better, While some say, Arsenal has the Momentum to conquer Chelsea. - Let's don't forget Arteta has been receiving special blessing from Pep and Wenger. - David Luiz just need to be Defender Luiz, not Agent Luiz. - Arteta should come up with a Tactic to Unmount Mount cuz he has been very MOUNTED in the Fa cup, Including Pulisic - Aubameyang should just do what he does best 🔫🔥 - Arsenal might apply the third law of Motion, but success is certain 🙏

Today's FA Cup Final With a fair sense of Judgment and Verdict not by sentiment or instinct and not opposing whatever someone else's perspective in trying to evaluate and express his opinion concerning the match today whom my opinion is likely to be an impending impediment to his consent, I would like to clearly state that I have officially forgotten what I wanted to say.😏
