Manchester City are coming off a hugely disappointing midweek in which they were eliminated from the Champions League by Real Madrid on penalties.
The dream of a double-treble is over, but City are still fighting for the Premier League and the FA Cup, though they face a tough task in overcoming Chelsea at Wembley.
Here is how the squads are shaping up.
Man City Team News
.There are no major injury concerns for Pep Guardiola and they even recently welcomed back Kyle Walker, Nathan Ake and Ederson after spells on the sidelines.
However, Erling Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne and Manuel Akanji all reportedly asked to be taken off in extra time during the week due to fatigue, so their fitness will be assessed prior to kick-off.
De Bruyne is the most likely of that trio to start.
Stefan Ortega will be given a start in goal as he has emerged as the Cup keeper.
Key player: Man City
With the likes of Haaland and De Bruyne either out of form or in and out of the team recently, City have relied on Phil Foden for magic.
Chelsea Team News
.Reece James, Christopher Nkunku, Lesley Ugochukwu, Wesley Fofana and Romeo Lavia are all definite absentees for Chelsea.
Raheem Sterling and Robert Sanchez both missed the win against Everton due to illness but should be okay to start this one if Mauricio Pochettino wants them.
Axel Disasi and Enzo Fernandez also missed that game, though weren't ill, just carrying knocks, so they will be assessed before kick-off on Saturday.
Key player: Chelsea
Cole Palmer revealed this week that he did not want to leave Man City in the summer, so there's an extra incentive for him to perform in this one.
Man City vs Chelsea lineups
Man City (4-1-4-1): Ortega; Walker, Stones, Dias, Ake; Rodri; Foden, De Bruyne, B. Silva, Doku; Alvarez.
Chelsea (4-2-3-1): Petrovic; Gusto, Chalobah, Silva, Chilwell; Caicedo, Fernandez; Palmer, Gallagher, Sterling; Jackson.
