Is Man City vs Birmingham on TV today? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch FA Cup fixture
Birmingham City will be hoping some classic FA Cup magic will help them defeat Manchester City at the Etihad on Sunday.
However, the Blues have been eliminated from the competition by Premier League opposition for the last seven years.
It also doesn’t bode well for Birmingham that Manchester City last failed to reach the fourth round back in 2011/12.
Pep Guardiola’s side have won their last five third round ties by an aggregate score of 23-2, and will be expected to make light work of their out-of-form opponents.
