Bournemouth vs Manchester City FA Cup Prediction Match Details
The FA Cup rounds off its quarter-final actions with a blockbuster fixture as Bournemouth welcomes Manchester City to Vitality Stadium on Sunday evening. Can the Cherries make it two wins in a row against City?
Bournemouth Preview & Form
Bournemouth are enjoying another impressive season but will be desperate to end their winless run. Before the International break, the Cherries only managed one wins in their last five matches across all competitions and that was a penalty shootout FA Cup victory in the fifth round against Wolverhampton. Their last game before the International break saw them loss 2-1 at home to Brentford at the Vitality Stadium. However, it is worth noting that, each of their last four matches have resulted in both teams scoring. This season in the FA Cup, Andoni Iraola’s men have enjoyed success beating West Brom 5-1, Everton 2-0 and Wolves to advance to the quarterfinals. They will take confidence in this game against Manchester City having beaten the Citizens 2-1 in the first half of the season at the Vitality Stadium to claim their first ever win against City.
Manchester City Preview & Form
Manchester City are enduring one of its worst seasons under Pep Guardiola, and their only chance of claiming a silverware this season is winning the FA Cup. The bookmakers have considered City as the favorite to win the FA Cup title this season. Pep Guardiola’s side come into this game on the back of a two match winless streak, losing 1-0 to Nottingham Forest at City Ground and then playing 2-2 to Brighton at Etihad Stadium. They made it to the quarterfinal of the FA Cup by beating Championship side Plymouth 3-1 at Etihad Stadium in the previous round. So far in the FA Cup competitions, City has displayed strong attacking threat scoring two or more goals in each of the games.
