The FA Cup final is almost here - and you can keep up with all the action across the BBC.

Chelsea and Manchester City will meet at Wembley Stadium on Saturday, with the Londoners hoping to have a positive end to a disappointing season and City looking to continue their campaign for a domestic treble.

You can watch, listen and read all the action from the game across the BBC on TV, radio, online and iPlayer.

Kick-off for the final is at 15:00 BST on Saturday, 16 May.

The game will be shown live on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, with coverage beginning from 13:15 BST.

Highlights will also be broadcast on BBC One and BBC iPlayer on Sunday, 17 May at 00:10 and 08:25 BST.

Live text commentary will cover all of the action, while digital highlights will be available on the BBC Sport website and BBC Sport social media channels.

BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC Sounds will be bringing you live commentary from the FA Cup final this weekend.

You can also listen to the match live on two local BBC radio stations on the radio, on BBC Sounds or on the BBC Sport website and app.
