City’s prime two gamers got a relaxation after the 1-0 win over Chelsea within the Premier League on Thursday but they weren’t particularly missed, with Riyad Mahrez, Julián Álvarez and Phil Foden scoring first-half targets and Mahrez including one other late on in a third-round cruise.

Next up for City in world soccer’s oldest knockout competitors is a rival that’s more likely to be its largest risk to the defence of the Premier League title. Arsenal, which leads second-place City by 5 factors within the league, will likely be heading to Etihad Stadium within the fourth spherical if it beats third-tier Oxford United on Monday.

Mahrez scored the one aim within the groups’ league match at Stamford Bridge on Thursday. While that was a tap-in, this one within the cup was a curling shot from a direct free kick that sailed into the highest nook within the twenty third minute.

The issues mount for Chelsea supervisor Graham Potter, whose injury-hit squad is in tenth place within the Premier League and is already out of each cups — having already misplaced to City within the League Cup in November.

City continues to be within the hunt for trophies in all 4 competitions and performs Southampton away within the League Cup quarterfinals on Wednesday.

VILLA SHOCKED

Aston Villa conceded twice from the 88th minute and was crushed 2-1 at dwelling by fourth-tier Stevenage in most likely the most important shock of the third spherical.

Ahead due to Morgan Sanson’s Thirty third-minute aim, Villa was decreased to 10 males when Leander Dendoncker was red-carded within the eighty fifth for an expert foul that gave Stevenage a penalty.

That was transformed and the guests, who’re in second place in League Two, grabbed an unlikely winner within the ninetieth.

LEEDS’ RALLY

Jesse Marsch had fairly the experience in his first match within the FA Cup.

The American coach noticed his Leeds group rally from 2-0 down towards second-tier Cardiff to attract 2-2 due to an equalizer within the third minute of stoppage time by substitute Sonny Perkins.

Rodrigo started Leeds’ restoration by pulling a aim again within the sixty fifth earlier than the Spain striker had a penalty saved within the 81st after Cardiff defender Joel Bagan stopped a goal-bound shot from Junior Firpo along with his outstretched hand and was proven the pink card.

The 18-year-old Perkins got here to Rodrigo’s rescue with a close-range aim to ship the groups to a replay.

The final time they met within the well-known competitors was in 2002, when Leeds — the Premier League chief on the time — was surprised by a Cardiff group that was in tenth place within the third tier.

FOURTH-ROUND DRAW

Wrexham, the non-league group owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, was rewarded for beating second-tier Coventry within the third spherical by getting a house match towards one other membership from the Championship — Sheffield United.

In different standout matches from the draw made Sunday, Manchester United will host second-tier Reading, Brighton will likely be at dwelling to the winner of the replay between Liverpool and Wolverhampton, Tottenham will go to second-tier Preston and fourth-tier Walsall will host Leicester.
