Manchester City and Huddersfield will meet again in the FA Cup 3rd round at the Etihad Stadium Stadium, Manchester Sunday, January 07, 2024. Here’s the preview, h2h stats, predicted line-up, TV channel info, live streaming service providers and how to watch online.
Manchester City, known as ‘Man Blue’, appears to have returned to winning ways after a period of instability in December. After drawing 2-2 with Crystal Palace on December 16, coach Pep Guardiola’s team has won 4 consecutive matches in all competitions. This victory helped Man City win the title of World Club Champion. They have also closed the gap on the Premier League’s top group and are back strong in the race for champions.
Man City don’t usually start the season at full speed. They usually start to speed up at the start of the new year. And when they start playing well, it’s very difficult to stop them.
Last season, Arsenal led the standings for three quarters of the season, but Man City managed to lead the standings at the end of April and won the Premier League title. It seems history may repeat itself this time.
There is interesting news about the strength of the team, De Bruyne will most likely play in this match, marking his return after 4 months out due to injury. Haaland and Doku have also returned to training. Pep Guardiola looks like he will have his best squad for this match.
On the other hand, Huddersfield is a team that plays in the first division. When they were still playing in the Premier League 5 years ago, they lost to Man City twice in the 2018/19 season, conceding 9 goals. Currently, Huddersfield is not in the best form as they have lost 3 of the last 4 matches.
Taking all these factors into account, it seems that Man City has the opportunity to advance to the fourth round of the FA Cup. In the last 3 meetings with Man City, Huddersfield was unable to score a goal in 2 matches. Given the huge difference in quality between the two teams, it seems likely that only Man City will score in this match.
