Leona Lewis to sing at FA Cup final between Arsenal, Hull City

British popstar Leona Lewis will perform at Wembley ahead of the FA Cup final between Arsenal and Hull City on Saturday.

The 29-year-old Islington-born singer, who is believed to be an Arsenal fan, found fame in 2006 after winning ITV talent show The X Factor.

Lewis will sing 'Abide with Me' and the national anthem after both Premier League teams line up on the pitch before kickoff.

"I'm so excited, I'm really looking forward to it," said Lewis. "I know it's going to be a crazy atmosphere there so it'll be fun.

"I've never done anything like it before so it'll be a cool experience for me. My dad and my brothers are huge football fans so they're really excited as well."

Arsenal are favourites to lift the trophy and end a nine-year wait for silverware.
