The Blues take on Manchester City at Wembley looking to win their first domestic trophy since 2018 under Antonio Conte.

Chelsea without doubt will be the underdogs on the day, but in a one off game the Blues have proven they can pull out a performance.

Calum McFarlane gives Neto and Garnacho FA Cup final update

Chelsea produced an improved display in Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Liverpool, with Levi Colwill starting his first game since the Club World Cup final last summer.

The Blues had to field a makeshift line-up as they had no senior wingers fit, whilst academy star Ryan Kavuma McQueen was left on the bench.

Chelsea have been without Neto and Garnacho for the last two games, and with less than a week until the final McFarlane has provided an update.

“Yeah, we’re very hopeful,” McFarlane told Chelsea’s website.

“You have to take these things day by day. We’re hoping that they’ll be available, but you don’t know at this moment in time.

“They’re going to get back into training [next week], see how they feel, see how it looks. So fingers crossed.”

Neto has scored ten goals and produced eight assists in 49 appearances this season, whilst Garnacho has eight goals and four assists in 41 appearances.
