GB News reported that Prince William and Prince George attended both the first leg in Paris and the second leg in Birmingham of Aston Villa's quarter-final clash with Paris Saint-Germain.

The Prince of Wales attended last season's FA Cup final between Manchester United and Manchester City.

Crystal Palace, who have never won a major trophy in their history, will be hoping to inflict back-to-back FA Cup final defeats on Manchester City.
