Football Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips
--------------------------------
Manchester City, hoping to redeem a disappointing season with a second FA Cup win in three years, will face Nottingham Forest in a semi-final at Wembley. By match time, both teams will know whether Aston Villa or Crystal Palace will be their potential opponent in the final.
Team Analysis:
While Liverpool nears the likely loss of their Premier League title, Manchester City has the chance to reach a third consecutive FA Cup final. City made history by advancing to the semi-finals for the seventh year in a row. Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest, aiming to break a 34-year FA Cup final drought, has relied on their penalty shootout success to reach Wembley. Both teams are also vying for a top-five Premier League finish.
Player Situation:
Manchester City faces multiple injury concerns with Haaland, Rodri, Ake, Stones, and Ederson all doubtful or sidelined. James McAtee is suspended, and Jeremy Doku is set to replace him. For Nottingham Forest, Ryan Yates and Neco Williams are also suspended, and Williams’ absence could leave them without a recognized right-back if Ola Aina can't recover in time. Forest also has a few other injuries but no major changes to their lineup.
Result Prediction:
Despite a dominant win for City over Forest in December, Nottingham Forest showed their strength last month with a solid defensive display, led by the Murillo-Milenkovic pairing. However, with City's confidence soaring and Forest missing key players due to suspension, City is expected to secure another FA Cup final spot, possibly needing extra time to do so.
Predicted Result: Nottingham Forest 1-2 Manchester City
