Peterborough United vs Man City LIVE early team news, predicted line-ups and score predictions

Manchester City will be hoping to take one step closer to winning the FA Cup on Tuesday evening when they face Peterborough United.

After already defeating Fulham and Swindon Town in the tournament, it's another match against lower league opposition for City, who have faced the Posh just once in their history - also in the fifth round - in 1981 which was won 1-0.

Pep Guardiola may be expecting a few more goals this time around at London Road and looks like he could name a strong side.

Liam Delap, James McAtee, Kayky and Sam Edozie were all in action for the Under-23s in their 0-0 draw with Leicester City on Monday night, so are unlikely to be involved from the start even if they are in the squad.

The boss has also confirmed that Aleks Zinchenko will start following an unbearably tough week for the Ukrainian.

You can follow all the build-up, action and reaction right here.

Pep Guardiola confirmed that Aleks Zinchenko will start for Manchester City in their televised FA Cup tie at Peterborough tomorrow night. The Ukraine captain was in tears at the weekend, along with fellow countryman Vitali Mykolenko of Everton, as players, staff and fans of the Toffees and the Blues put on a show of unity and support in the face of Russia's invasion of their country.

Neither player figured in the game at Goodison Park, but Zinchenko is a natural starter in the fifth round game against Championship relegation strugglers Posh. And Guardiola said he would definitely be in the XI. Asked if he would start, the City boss replied: “Yeah. I think it will be good for him to play and show the reason why he's here.”
