Man City v Brighton FA Cup Betting Tips: Another Wembley win for City?

Betting preview and odds for FA Cup clash

An FA Cup Final place is up for grabs this evening as Manchester City meet Brighton & Hove Albion.

Manchester City are hoping to grab another trophy, following their League Cup success in February.

But for Brighton this is the first time they’ve reached this stage of the competition since they made the final in 1983.

Can the Seagulls mess up City’s quadruple charge? Watch the action unfold on BBC One from 5.30pm.

Head-to-Head

City have three wins in their last three games over today’s opponents. A goal apiece from Raheem Sterling and Sergio Aguero was enough to ease to a 2-0 victory in the league meeting earlier in the season.

Brighton’s last victory over the Citizens came in 2008 League Cup second round. Glenn Murray and Joe Anyinsah scored in the 2-2 draw, before keeper Michael Kuipers was the hero in a 5-3 penalty shoot-out victory.

Likely XIs

Pep Guardiola will have to make some tough decisions after making no guarantees that fit-again Benjamin Mendy will make the starting eleven.

It may fall to Danilo to play at left-back, with versatile Oleksandr Zinchenko suffering a hamstring injury against Cardiff City in midweek.

We should expect Sergio Aguero to replace Gabriel Jesus in attack, with Raheem Sterling and Bernardo Silva buzzing around him.

Chris Hughton only has Pascal Gross as a confirmed absentee ahead of the clash. He could set-up like-for-like in a 4-3-3 formation.
