In the previous round of the FA Cup, Peterborough United hosted Queens Park Rangers. Peterborough showed itself in a good way and defeated the opponent 2:0. It should be noted that this is the club's only victory in the ten matches. After the cup game, Peterborough United managed to earn a point in five Championships games. Due to the unsuccessful series, the team dropped to last place in the standings. Currently, it is one of the main contenders for relegation to the first English league.

Manchester City played at home against Fulham in the FA Cup last 16. At the beginning of the encounter, Guardiola's team was catching up but quickly pointed out to the Cottagers' soon defeat. The Citizens scored four goals and sealed a 4:1 win. Man City's last opponent in the EPL was Everton. Guardiola's charges got a 1:0 win at Goodison Park. The Citizens still top the standings of the English championship.

• Peterborough United has scored at least two goals in six of their last seven FA Cup appearances.
• Manchester City has scored two or more goals in six of their last seven appearances in the FA Cup.

The match against such a strong opponent will be a challenge and test for Peterborough. There is no doubt that the hosts will do everything possible on the field, but the main difference will be the clubs' level. Guardiola is a maximalist, and I do not think he may underestimate the opponent and choose inexperienced players. I expect a quick goal kickoff is the main bet. I also propose Manchester City to win in a productive encounter.
