Defending champions Manchester City host Newcastle United at the Etihad in the FA Cup semi-finals on Saturday.

Pep Guardiola’s side beat rivals Man Utd in last season’s final on their way to a historic treble – a feat that they’re pushing hard to repeat this term.

The Citizens are part of a three-horse race for the Premier League title, and have booked their place in the Champions League quarter-final already.

Questions were asked about Man City’s mentality as they held on for a 1-1 draw against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday, and they’ll want to respond in the only fashion they know how, by continuing what has been an impressive FA Cup run.

A 1-0 win over Spurs in the fourth round was bookended by a 5-0 win over Huddersfield and a 6-2 win at Luton Town, which will be cause for concern for this weekend’s visitors.

It’s been a frustrating season for Eddie Howe and Newcastle, who failed to make it past the group stages of the Champions League, went out to Chelsea in the Carabao Cup, and are 10th in the Premier League as things stand.

The FA Cup is their last chance of silverware, and they’ll be hoping for a bit of its famed magic as they look to oust the 2022/23 treble winners and punch their ticket for Wembley.
