In the race for a spot in the FA Cup quarter-finals, Manchester City hosts Championship team Plymouth Argyle at the Etihad Stadium for a fifth-round match on Saturday evening. The Manchester City vs Plymouth Argyle match will kick off at 17:45 UK Time.

After a tumultuous campaign, Man City’s last legitimate shot at winning a trophy this season is the FA Cup. One of my two suggested wagers was on Pep Guardiola’s team, who came back from behind to beat Leyton Orient 2-1 in the previous round. The Citizens are riding high after a 1-0 victory away against Tottenham on Wednesday night. They will be looking to continue their winning streak in this match.
Plymouth, however, has shown that they can defeat giants by sweeping Brentford and Liverpool in the last two rounds. Miron Muslic’s squad has won back-to-back games, which has helped their chances of surviving the English Championship. They have lost only once in their past six games in the second division.
