Trouble for Bernardo Silva: ex-Benfica star faces a gruelling schedule | OneFootball

Manchester City will host Liverpool in the FA Cup quarter-finals, in one of the most anticipated clashes of the competition. The match is scheduled for April 4 or 5 at the Etihad Stadium, and promises to be just another chapter in an extremely demanding calendar for Bernardo Silva's team.

Before that, the Citizens already have a decisive commitment at Wembley. On March 22, Manchester City will play the English League Cup final against Arsenal. In that match, the Portuguese players Rubén Dias, Bernardo Silva - who is not expected to renew his contract - and Matheus Nunes will try to help the Manchester club win yet another trophy.

The beginning of April will also be intense. After the clash with Liverpool in the FA Cup, Manchester City will travel to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea, in the 32nd round of the Premier League. The following week, the English champions will meet Arsenal again, in a match that could prove decisive in the title race.

As if that weren't enough, Pep Guardiola's team could still have two more highly demanding matches on their schedule. If they get past Real Madrid in the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League, Manchester City will play the quarter-finals against the winner of the tie between Bayern Munich and Atalanta, with matches scheduled for April 7/8 and 14/15.

Southampton and Arsenal, Chelsea and Port Vale, while the winner of the clash between West Ham United and Brentford will face Leeds United.
