Preview
Manchester City and Burnley meet at Etihad Stadium, in a match for this stage of the FA Cup (3rd Round). At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 2 wins and 1 draw in the last 3 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 21‑10‑2017, in a match for the Premier League, Manchester City won by (3‑0). The goals of the match were scored by S. Agüero (30' ), N. Otamendi (73' ) and L. Sané (75' ) for Manchester City. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, since Burnley presents significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Man City

The home team makes its debut in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of getting a positive result, using the home advantage in their favour. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 12 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in away matches, with 35 goals scored and 11 conceded; against 13 wins and 2 draws at their stadium, with 44 goals scored and 9 conceded. In their last match, for the Premier League, they got a home win against Watford by (3‑1). In the last 10 home matches Manchester City has won 10. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 25 of the last 29 have ended with Over 1,5 goals and 22 out of 29 have ended with Over 2,5 goals.

Manchester City comes motivated for this match after a 3-1 home win against Watford: Sterling, Kabasele (self-goal) and Aguero scored their "winning" goals. Manchester team is usually in a 4-3-3 scheme, where the three players responsible for panicking the opponent’s defense are Sterling, Aguero and Sané. Thus, acting at home, it’s foreseeable that Manchester City will adopt a more offensive stance, in order to take advantage of the opponent’s fragilities. For this match, the coach should make some changes, once that it’s a match for a less important competition.

Confirmed Lineup: Claudio Bravo, Danilo, John Stones, Nicolás Otamendi, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Fernandinho, İlkay Gündoğan, David Silva, Sergio Agüero, Raheem Sterling, Leroy Sané.
Coach: J. Guardiola i Sala.

Analysis Burnley

The team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of getting a positive away result. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 19 goals scored and 15 conceded; against 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 15 goals scored and 15 conceded. In their last match, for the Premier League, they got a home loss against Liverpool by (1‑2). In the last 10 away matches Burnley has won 3, tied 5 and lost 2. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 13 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 13 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Burnley comes unmotivated for this match after a home defeat, by 1-2, against Liverpool. The visiting team usually plays on a tactical system in 4-3-3, favoring a slower and more organized playing style. It’s clear that the three players responsible for launching panic on opponent’s defense are Barnes, Gudmundsson and Arfield. The coach Sean Dyche won’t count on Tom Heaton for being injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Nick Pope, Matthew Lowton, Charlie Taylor, Kevin Long, Ben Mee, Jack Cork, Jóhann Guðmundsson, Ashley Westwood, Jeff Hendrick, Sam Vokes, Ashley Barnes.
Coach: S. Dyche.
