When is the FA Cup semi-final draw? TV and time details, Man City ball number

Manchester City and Southampton will not have to wait too long to discover FA Cup semi-final opponents after a last-eight tie between the sides at St Mary's Stadium this afternoon (3pm).

With a trip to Wembley in sight, the Premier League rivals are set to get down to business on the south coast. They do so needing only three more victories to pick up the world-famous trophy.

As far as City are concerned, the FA Cup represents an opportunity for them to replicate the historic treble won by neighbours Manchester United in 1999. Pep Guardiola and his star-studded side are still in the Champions League as they also continue their Premier League title race with Liverpool.
