Newcastle United face off against Manchester City for the fifth time this season when the sides lock horns in Saturday’s FA Cup fifth round clash.
Three of this term’s four previous meetings have come since the turn of the calendar year, Man City victorious in both legs of the Carabao Cup semifinal and during the recent Premier League meeting at the Etihad Stadium. However, it was Newcastle who triumphed on the first battle of the campaign at St James’ Park back in November.
