Is Manchester City v Southampton on TV? Channel, kick-off time and how to watch FA Cup semi-final | OneFootball

Six-time champions Manchester City continue their late-season push for glory on two fronts with an FA Cup semi-final against in-form Southampton.

The Championship’s form side, Saints got the better of Arsenal in their quarter-final with a late 2-1 victory, and are enjoying a sparkling run of 20 games in a row unbeaten, including their last eight in the second tier - although a 2-2 draw with Bristol City on Tuesday stalled their promotion push somewhat.

Man City lack conviction but got the job done in a 1-0 win to condemn Burnley to relegation from the top flight in their last encounter, and shellacked Liverpool 4-0 to make a record-extending eighth consecutive appearance in the FA Cup last four.

Both sides are full of self-confidence and belief at this late stage of the season, with City proven winners in this competition and Saints driven by the memory of their FA Cup glory 50 years ago, setting up a fascinating clash at Wembley.

Man City face Southampton in the FA Cup semi-finals at Wembley on Saturday 25 April, with kick-off at 5.15pm BST.

Team news

City will be without talismanic midfielder Rodri, who limped off in the win over Arsenal and missed the trip to Burnley, with Pep Guardiola saying they would not risk the Spaniard ahead of the title race run-in. Long-term absentees Josko Gvardiol and Ruben Dias remain sidelined.

Saints will be missing the suspended Ryan Manning and Flynn Downes - the latter was suspended for three games for violent conduct in their win over Swansea City - while captain Jack Stephens is a doubt after pulling up with a calf problem in the warm-up before their draw with Bristol City. Mads Roerslev and Alex McCarthy remain absent.

Man City XI: Trafford; Nunes, Khusanov, Guehi, Ait-Nouri; Bernardo, O'Reilly; Savinho, Cherki, Marmoush; Haaland
