Can Manchester City Win the Quadruple? Analyzing Their Shot at History

FA Cup

Of the remaining 3 titles, this is the one City are the most likely to win. They’ve had a relatively comfortable run to the Semi-Finals and all of the other top 6 sides are out.

Only Brighton, Watford, and Wolves remain in the competition as potential opponents. Whilst these are 3 decent mid-table Premier League sides, City has comfortably beaten all of them this season.

With only 1 FA Cup game before the end of the Premier League season, I also expect Pep Guardiola to take this competition very seriously. Expect a full-strength City side in the Semi against Brighton, which should be strong enough to advance to the Final.

Ultimately, it’s hard to see past City doing at least the domestic cup double this season. They have too much quality, depth, and coaching ability compared to their opponents and will bring the FA Cup back to Manchester.
