How to watch Bristol City vs Man City with TV channel, live stream and FA Cup kick-off time

Manchester City are back in action this midweek as they resume their FA Cup campaign.

City beat Bournemouth in the Premier League on Saturday night and the fifth round of the cup has pitted them against Championship opposition in Bristol City. It is more than five years since the two teams last met, when City prevailed over two legs in the Carabao Cup semi-finals during Pep Guardiola's first triumph in the competition as City manager.

The Robins are in the second tier and sit 13th, nine points adrift of the final play-off place. But Nigel Pearson's side are in a rich vein of form coming into this tie, having gone unbeaten in their last 12 matches across all competitions, a run stretching back to a Boxing Day defeat to West Brom. Here's all the details you need to know ahead of Tuesday's tie.
