The Manchester United women look to defend their title when they take on Chelsea for the final of the Women’s FA Cup. Will the Blues complete a historic treble or will they be denied at the final hurdle by the defending champion Red Devils? Here’s our match prediction!
This is a rematch of the 2022/23 final, during which time Chelsea walked away with a 1-0 win to claim their third straight FA Cup. Manchester United were eventually the team to snap the Blues stranglehold over this competition in last year’s edition, where a 4-0 win over Tottenham marked the Red Devils first and only FA Cup title.
Now, Chelsea are seeking to cement their legacy as one of the greatest ever teams following their invincible WSL campaign. Manchester United, meanwhile, are now in their third straight FA Cup final and will feel they have the experience and know-how to play the role of spoilers. It’s sure to be a spectacle under the famous Wembley arch in this can’t-miss final!

Chelsea - Manchester United WFC: Form Analysis
Chelsea have been the dominant force in the women’s game for the better part of the last decade, winning eight of the last 10 WSL titles (including the last six straight) and claiming five FA Cup titles during that stretch.
They come into this cup final having won their last three games in a row, all by 1-0 score lines. The most recent of those was at home against Liverpool where a stoppage time goal by Beever-Jones ensured that Chelsea set a record points total (60) and became the first women’s team to complete a 22-game season unbeaten.
Chelsea finished the 2024/25 WSL campaign with 19 wins, three draws and zero defeats.
In their FA Cup run, Chelsea had to come from behind to make it past Liverpool in the semi-final. Once again, it was Beever-Jones who popped up in the fourth minute of stoppage time to send Chelsea through to the final in a 2-1 win.
It was a tough end to the WSL season for Manchester United, who failed to win in their last four matches and had to settle for a third-place finish. Their last outing saw them lose a seven-goal thriller to second-place Arsenal in a 4-3 away defeat.
United made it past local rivals Manchester City 2-0 in their semi-final matchup to advance to yet another FA Cup final.

Chelsea & Manchester United WFC Squad Analysis
Chelsea manager Sonia Bompastor will be without a number of her most recognizable names, including Sam Kerr (ACL rupture), Lauren James (hamstring) and Mayra Ramirez (knee). They’ll need Agnes Beever-Jones to keep delivering in the big moments, with the 21-year-old having scored two of the most important goals of the season. Beever-Jones leads the team in scoring with 13 across all competitions.
Chelsea have a lengthy injury list with no fewer than nine players missing out!
At the back, defender Millie Bright is sure to play a crucial role in determining Chelsea’s success in this final. The 31-year-old was the standout performer in Chelsea’s 1-0 win over Liverpool last Sunday, where she made 12 defensive actions, nine clearances and won nine of her 13 duels.
Bright is also instrumental in the Blues’ buildup where her 110 progressive passes ranks as the third most on the team.
Manchester United, by comparison, are in a much better position injury wise. Rachel Willams has been out since April and the only other doubt will be over Jayde Riviere, who will be a game-time decision.
Elisabeth Terland will be the Red Devils main threat going forward. She’s put up efficient attacking numbers this season with 12 goals and six assists in 26 appearances across all competitions. Maya Le Tissier is United’s rock at the back and has arguably been the team's top performer in the 2024/25 season.
