What is the FA Cup
The FA Cup is England's longest and proudest competition. It was first played during the 1871–72 season, and as a result it is the oldest association football competition in the world. The FA Cup is a knockout tournament and involves all of the teams currently playing in all 4 divisions of the English Football League (Premier League, Championship, League One, League Two), along a host of non-league clubs. FA Cup winners automatically qualify for the first round of the Europa League. Traditionally the FA Cup Final always takes place in May and is held at Wembley Stadium. Arsenal are the most successful club in the FA Cup history, winning a total of 13 FA Cup competitions.
It is very hard to predict as Premier League teams often opt to rest their best players for the top flight, while Championship, League One and League Two clubs go full force to get visibility and TV coverage. It’s the competition where anything can happen. Giant killings are very frequent but our tipsters are good enough to avoid this kind of upsets and even correctly predict a correct score or two.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the FA Cup?
The FA Cup is one of the most famous cup competitions in the world football. Founded back in 1871, it is an English knockout football competition which pits together teams from different divisions, from Premier League clubs to the lowest ranked side clubs from the National League North and National League South.
How does the FA Cup work this year?
The FA Cup takes place throughout the English football season, starting with the preliminary rounds in August, welcoming EFL clubs from League One and Two in November, adding Premier League and Championship teams in January and then reaching the final in May. The tournament is in a knock-out format, with only one leg being played between each team. Due to worries over fixture congestion, there are no FA Cup replays this year. Games go into extra time if level after 90 minutes, then if still a stalemate it's time for a penalty shoot-out. Interestingly, there is no seeding in the draw, which makes the FA Cup more unpredictable.
When is the FA Cup final?
The 2022 final will take place on Saturday 14 May at Wembley. The kick-off time is usually confirmed in April. It will be shown on BBC One.
