Bournemouth Vs Manchester City
The FA Cup has reached its quarter final stage and it’s the last chance for Manchester City to win a trophy in this substandard season.
Andoni Iraola’s team would be looking to pick-pocket Manchester City again this season as they beat them in the only encounter this season.
Semenyo and Evanilson featured on the scoresheet in that match and the forward duo will be looking to punish the Man City defenders at any mistake.
Justin Kluivert being the leading man with 12 goals
Manchester City, who have not been able to get out of the void of missing Rodri, have been very bad at defending this season especially in the final quarter of the game whereas Bournemouth have been great in attacking as all of their forward players have contributed in scoring 48 goals in the entire Premier league campaign with Justin Kluivert being the leading man with 12 goals.
Pep Guardiola might play all his aces to get past through this fixture as this is his only chance to win silverware this season. The Premier League is a distant reality and Newcastle has already won the Carabao Cup. Real Madrid defeated them in Knockout Play-offs meaning that FA Cup is only salvation for Pep’s men who haven’t gone trophyless in 7 seasons.

Bournemouth will be looking to create history in the FA Cup
Bournemouth will be looking to create history in the tournament as they have never won it and they are enjoying a great season under Iraola who has been immense. As Iraola is being contacted by several big teams, he might not feature on the sidelines of the Vitality Stadium next season, this might be the best time for the cherries to create history.
Bournemouth have also been experiencing a drop of form as they have not won any of the last five games in regulation time since defeating Southampton in mid-February. They will hope that this form gets back to their best after the international break.
