What Is the FA Cup?
Fans looking to start their Saturday or Sunday morning with a full slate of Premier League games may be disappointed, but the FA Cup has a rich history. The FA Cup is a domestic tournament in England where teams in several different leagues battle, not just the Premier League squads.
Crystal Palace is the defending champions after upsetting Manchester City in the 2025 final. The tournament has appeal as it allows teams from lower leagues to square off against traditional EPL powers like Chelsea and Arsenal.
