Man City confirm kick off date, time and TV schedule for Peterborough United FA Cup tie

Manchester City have confirmed the kick off date and time for their FA Cup Fifth Round tie with Peterborough United.

Pep Guardiola's side have so far had to beat League Two Swindon Town and Championship side Fulham to reach this stage of the competition.

Both fixtures were won comfortably 4-1 but City did have to come from behind to be victorious in the Fourth Round.

The Posh meanwhile have been drawn at home for the third consecutive time in this year's competition.

Darren Ferguson's men beat Bristol Rovers in the Third Round 2-1, before knocking out fellow second tier club QPR 2-0 in the Fourth Round.

City now know that they will travel to London Road on Tuesday, March 1 for a 7.15pm kick off.

The match will be shown on ITV, ITV Hub, STV and UTV.

Once again the fifth round of the the FA Cup will be played during midweek.

This decision was made by the FA back in 2020 in order to 'alleviate fixture congestion' for teams across England.
