England
Manchester City hope to do the double when they take on Brighton & Hove Albion in the FA Cup Final on Monday, 12am AEST. City go into the game as favourites, but the Seagulls will be full of confidence, ending the league season in superb form and taking a number of points from strong teams in the process. Charlize Rule was recently named Brighton’s Young Player of the Season and is expected to start the match, while Mary Fowler will be available for City off the back of helping City to their first WSL title in ten years.
