Stoke City takes on Manchester City in the FA Cup Final at 10:00 a.m. today at Wembley Stadium, and the match will televised on Fox Soccer Channel. This is an interesting match-up because, despite the fact that both teams are having solid seasons (Manchester City in 4th place, Stoke in 8th) it has been a long time since either won a trophy, particularly one as important as the FA Cup. Manchester City's last win in the FA Cup Final came in 1969, while Stoke's was 1972. So it's a safe bet to say both teams and their fans will be up for it today at Wembley. No predictions today, but enjoy the match and enjoy some pictures from a trip to Wembley back in April of 2009 (note: during the visit, Wembley was in the process of replacing the field, hence all the dirt; still, a very impressive stadium).
