Catch this weekend’s LIVE FA Cup action on DStv

DStv and GOtv customers can look forward to action from the 2020-21 FA Cup, Premier League seasons, with matches scheduled for 9 -15 February 2021.

The pick of FA Cup matches for the Fifth Round is an all – Premier League clash between Manchester United and West Ham United on Tuesday 9^th February at 8:30pm on SuperSport Premier League, SuperSport Grandstand (DStv Channel 203 & 201). The Red Devils booked their place in the last 16 with a stunning 3-2 win over Liverpool at Old Trafford and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes that result was a major psychological step forward.

However, their opponents are not to be underestimated. Not only would former Man United manager David Moyes love to put the heavyweights out of the Cup, such a result would further underline the great progress the Hammers have made under his leadership in the past year or so.

The midweek round of matches also sees Chelsea head to Oakwell for a clash with Barnsley on Thursday, 11^th February at 9pm on SuperSport Premier League – a fixture earned in former manager Frank Lampard’s last game in charge of the Blues, a 3-1 win over Luton Town in the previous round – while a potential thriller between Everton and Tottenham Hotspur is another clash to savour on Wednesday, 10^th February at 9:05pm on SuperSport Football Plus and SuperSport Variety 1 (DStv Channel 202 & 206).

Leicester City must be considered one of the dark horses for the FA Cup title and will fancy their chances of progressing through a home clash against Brighton & Hove Albion on Wednesday, 10^th February at 8:30pm on SuperSport Premier League, while Manchester City can be spoken of as favourites but face a tricky clash away to a Swansea City team which has been going great guns in the Championship on Wednesday, 10^th February at 6:30pm on SuperSport Premier League.

Premier League action sees Manchester City host Tottenham Hotspur at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday, 13^th February at 6:30pm on SuperSport Premier League. This clash sees Jose Mourinho looking to pick up a third straight win over his old rival Pep Guardiola, with Spurs having beaten City 2-0 in the teams’ last two league meetings.

Spurs will be looking for another powerful performance from midfielder Tanguy Ndombele, who has come on in leaps and bounds this season.

Another crunch clash sees Leicester City host Liverpool at the King Power Stadium on Saturday, 13^th February at 1:30pm on SuperSport Premier League, with Foxes manager Brendan Rodgers hoping his side produces the same kind of home performance which saw them outclass Chelsea last month.

The round of Premier League matches also sees a potential thriller between Arsenal and Leeds United at the Emirates on Sunday, 14^th February at 5:30pm on SuperSport Premier League, Manchester United will back themselves to win away to ‘Big Sam’ Allardyce’s West Bromwich Albion on Sunday, 14^th February at 3pm on SuperSport Premier League, and Chelsea will be eager to boost their European hopes with a win at home to Newcastle United on Monday, 15^th February at 9pm on SuperSport Premier League.
