Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Pep Guardiola's Manchester City press conference ahead of the FA Cup fifth round trip to Newcastle United.
The Blues dropped points in the Premier League title race in midweek when they were twice pegged back by struggling Nottingham Forest in a 2-2 draw. That allowed Arsenal to extend their lead at the top of the table to seven points, although City have a game in hand.
The focus now turns to the FA Cup with the Blues facing a tough test at St James' Park against a Newcastle side who they have already played four times this season. City knocked them out of the Carabao Cup at the semi-final stage and Eddie Howe's side, struggling in the league, will have eyes on a cup run.
Guardiola will provide an injury update with Nico O'Reilly having missed the midweek game with Forest, while he will also be asked about the FA Cup, the title race and more. Stay with us for live updates.
