On Saturday, the last trophy of this season will be awarded in English football. Newly-crowned Premier League title-holder Manchester City could become the country’s first team to win all three national titles in a single season. In addition to the championship, the Champions drove a few weeks ago against Chelsea the League Cup. There is no doubt before the finals in the oldest football competition in the world that Manchester City against Watford is not only the big favorite on the national treble, according to the odds of all bookmakers. Never before has a team from the bottom half of the top English league won an FA Cup final against champions. While the Derby County play-off semi-final against Leeds was unlikely to erase such historical series at some point during the week, even an extension in that pair would be a big surprise. However, since Watford will be the absolute highlight of the last few years, the Hornets will try to make the Skyblues as difficult as possible.

Manchester City vs Watford Football Betting Tips

Therefore, between Manchester City and Watford our prediction recommends a tip on “both teams to score”.
For the first time since 2008 – then Dave Jones against Harry Redknapp – will face in the final two coaches with the same nationality. But only for the second time no British. In 2001, the two Frenchmen Arsene Wenger and Gerard Houllier met each other. This time it’s the Spaniards Pep Guardiola (Man City) and Javier Garcia (Watford). It is already clear that the world’s oldest football trophy will go to a Spanish coach for the third time after Rafa Benitez (Liverpool, 2006) and Roberto Martinez (Wigan, 2003). In his complete coaching career, Guardiola has a better 100 percent win rate than Malaga (eight wins in eight games), Hanover, Bremen and West Ham (all seven / seven) vs Watford (six / six).
