Manchester City legend gives prediction for FA Cup semi-final vs. Chelsea

Manchester City have a number of massive matches ahead, as is usual for the club as the end of the season draws nearer.

A Premier League meeting with leaders Arsenal looms this weekend, followed by a pair of Champions League matches against Real Madrid. 

After those games comes an FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea, a team that have given the Sky Blues a challenge this season in a pair of league draws. Now they square off at Wembley for the chance to play for a trophy, and a former Man City star has shared his thoughts on how he feels the match will play out.

Speaking to Stake, Sergio Aguero said City's experience at this stage of the competition should be enough to see them through to the final.

"To me, the important thing is that City has reached this milestone once more," Aguero said. "I read recently that they're the first team in FA Cup history to reach the semi-finals for six seasons in a row.

"And winning the whole thing gets more and more likely the more often you do it. The game itself will be tricky. Chelsea is in an upsurge, and they have a young, hungry team.

"But City's team knows how they like to play the game and I think they'll be able to make it through."
