Everton vs. Manchester City, FA Cup: Start time, predictions and how to watch on TV

Manchester City, with Argentine striker Sergio Agüero among those called up, will face Everton today for a place in the semifinals of the FA Cup, the oldest soccer tournament with 149 years of history. The game will be played at Goodison Park in Liverpool starting at 12:30 ET. Josep Guardiola's City have an ideal present as Premier League leaders (they're 14 points ahead of United); finalist in the English League Cup and quarterfinalist in the European Champions League. The Citizens go for everything and intend to go further in the FA Cup, a cup they won six times.

The Kun Agüero will seek to add more minutes after the 15 he played last Tuesday in qualifying for the Champions League quarter-finals against Borussia Mönchengladbach from Germany. The former Independiente, who must renew his contract with the club before June, complained that his teammates did not pass the ball to him.

James Rodríguez will not play at Everton

Everton will have some casualties due to injury, among them the Colombian James Rodríguez, but Guardiola remarked that he has "a great coach" like the Italian Carlo Ancelotti who will hinder City's chances.

The second match of the day of the FA Cup quarterfinals will be between Bournemouth, which plays in the English second division, and Southampton from 7.30 ET. The 2021 FA Cup final is scheduled for May 15 at Wembley Stadium in London.

Start time and TV

We predict: Everton 0-2 Manchester City

With all of Guardiola's contingent adjustment and great will to go to the quarterfinals, the fearsome depth of City's squad will certainly come to the fore this weekend. Everton's historic win over Tottenham will long live in the memories of Toffees fans, but this is likely where their FA Cup dream ends as City must keep their fourfold hopes alive with a direct win on their way. to the last four.
