Newcastle take on Manchester City in arguably the standout FA Cup fifth round tie at St. James’ Park.
This is the fifth meeting between the two sides already this season and there’s the possibility of a sixth as they are on opposite sides of the Champions League draw.
Newcastle won the first fixture back in November but have lost the last three, including both legs of the Carabao Cup semi-final and the Premier League showdown at the Etihad Stadium a few weeks ago.
The Magpies, however, did beat Manchester United with ten-men on Wednesday night to build some confidence as they seek to complete a unique double.
Pep Guardiola’s side suffered a setback in the Premier League title race after being held at home by Nottingham Forest and know this tie will test their credentials of an unprecedented quadruple.
