Team News:
Manchester City and Brighton & Hove Albion will travel to Wembley on Saturday in what will be an entertaining encounter. The two English Premier League sides will compete in the FA Cup Semi-Final, where both teams will look to advance to the competition’s final.
Manchester City have already won the EFL “Carabao” Cup this season, and the Sky Blues will look to add to their trophy cabinet. City manager Pep Guardiola found himself at this stage of the competition two years ago, albeit his side were eliminated by Arsenal in extra time. Guardiola and his men will believe they have learned from this mistake as they prepare for this fixture on Saturday.
It will be no easy match, however, as Brighton & Hove Albion are also celebrating their success in this season’s competition. Brighton’s last appearance in the Semi-Finals came in the mid-1980s, and having been on a hiatus for over thirty years, the Seagulls will look to give it their all in this match.
Manchester City are without the injured Oleksandr Zinchenko and Fabian Delph. Sergio Agüero will travel with the team, although it is unlikely he will start in this match.
Brighton & Hove Albion’s Solly March, Jason Steele and Pascal Groß are sidelined through injury.
