Manchester City and Southampton have been drawn together in the FA Cup quarter-finals. City reached the quarter-finals after celebrating a 2-0 victory over Peterborough, while the Saints beat West Ham with a 3-1 score. Southampton will host Pep Guardiola's side in the quarters on Sunday, March 20. Ahead of the game, Paul Merson has stated his prediction on SportsKeeda.
Southampton have a fantastic record against Manchester City and have caused them a handful of problems over the years. To add to that, City will be a bit rattled, as they dropped points against Crystal Palace and Liverpool reduced the gap at the top to a solitary point with a statement victory against Arsenal. This is an interesting game, but when it comes to predictions, I can never go against Manchester City. They'll probably have 75% of the ball, but can they score enough goals? Southampton's league form has dipped a bit, so they will look to express themselves and make an impact against a side they've done well against over the years.Paul Merson's Prediction: Southampton 0-3 Manchester City
