Manchester City will face Newcastle United in an FA Cup quarter-final at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday evening, hoping to keep their chances of completing a second successive treble alive.
With their place in the Champions League’s last eight already secured and their bid to retain the Premier League title still very much alive, Pep Guardiola’s side will turn their attention to the FA Cup this weekend, hoping to maintain their dominance over a Newcastle side struggling to find consistent form this season.

With both managers dealing with a number of significant absentees, ManchesterWorld examines the most recent injury updates for City and their opponents.
