Manchester City vs Burnley FA Cup Match Preview & Livestream
The second-best of the Premier League faces the best of the Championship when Manchester City and Burnley face off for a place in the FA Cup semi-finals.
City head into the tie on a high after a stunning 7-0 thumping of RB Leipzig in midweek sent them into the Champions League quarter-finals – Erling Haaland scoring five of those goals.
Pep Guardiola’s men are on a nine-match unbeaten run in all competitions and sit second in the top-flight standings, five points behind leaders Arsenal.
But Burnley, led by City legend Vincent Kompany, are on a superb 18-game undefeated streak that has helped them go 13 points clear on top of the Championship table.
Kick-off is at 5:45pm GMT. Make sure you know how to watch the FA Cup wherever you are.
