What channel is Arsenal vs Man City? FA Cup kick-off time, TV and live stream information

Mikel Arteta comes face-to-face with mentor Pep Guardiola on Saturday evening when Arsenal take on Manchester City in the first FA Cup semi-final.

Man City are the current FA Cup holders, having won the trophy as part of an unprecedented domestic treble last season.

Their FA Cup run this season has seen them take on plenty of lower-league opposition, dismissing Port Vale, Fulham and Sheffield Wednesday, before drawing Premier League Newcastle in the quarter-final, who they beat 2-0.

Meanwhile Arsenal have overcome Leeds, Bournemouth, Portsmouth and Sheffield United en-route to the semi-final.

City have done the league double over Arsenal this season, beating the Gunners 3-0 on both occasions, although the Gunners will be buoyed by Wednesday's 2-1 win over Premier League champions Liverpool.

Kick-off at Wembley for the first semi-final is at 7.45pm on Saturday.

Again, no fans will be allowed into Wembley, so watching the match at home is the only option.

The second semi-final, between Manchester United and Chelsea, at 6pm on Sunday.

Only one Premier League game is being played on Saturday, Norwich vs Burnley at 5.30pm.

FA Cup coverage is split between BT Sport and the BBC, and it's the former that will be showing Arsenal vs Man City.

Coverage on BT Sport 1 begins at 7pm.

The match will not be free-to-air, so fans will need to pay to enjoy the clash.

Those who do pay will also be able to stream the game through the BT Sport app.

Arsenal - 15/2

Draw - 9/2

Man City - 1/3

Despite another mediocre season in the Premier League, Arsenal still have somewhat of a chance to lift a trophy with the FA Cup.

They're the most successful club to win it with 13 titles in their history and could make it 14th if things go well this year.

They do, however, face a Manchester City side eager to land a domestic cup double after conquering the League Cup again under Pep Guardiola.

City have responded with decent form winning all but two of their matches since Project Restart.

The match at Wembley does have the ingredients of a cup classic.
