How to Watch Man City vs. Liverpool on TV, Live Stream

The FA Cup returns this weekend at the quarterfinal stage and a blockbuster clash between Manchester City and Liverpool gets the ball rolling.
Liverpool make the journey to the Etihad Stadium for their first outing after the international break, boasting fond memories of their most recent FA Cup clash with Saturday’s opponents. The 3–2 victory in the semifinal of the 2021–22 season saw them progress to the showpiece event, where they eventually beat Chelsea.
City have been to the FA Cup final in every subsequent season, kicking off with victory in 2022–23 but then losing back-to-back finals. Last term’s defeat to Crystal Palace needs avenging this time around, although City’s Carabao Cup final victory over Arsenal just before the international period has helped them on the road to redemption.
With neither side at their swashbuckling best this term, it’s difficult to predict exactly what kind of encounter we’ll witness on Saturday. One thing is all but certain, however, and that’s drama.
Here’s how to catch the cup clash on TV.

What’s Next for Man City, Liverpool?

Man City have the luxury of an empty midweek schedule following their Champions League last 16 exit to Real Madrid, meaning they don’t return to action until their Premier League fixture away at Chelsea next weekend.
Liverpool are not so lucky, staring at an arduous Champions League quarterfinal first leg away at reigning champions Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday, after which they will host Fulham in the Premier League.
