With the Premier League title out of reach and the Champions League a long shot, the FA Cup now represents Man City's best chances of a trophy this season. Pep Guardiola's side will therefore be taking this fourth-round clash with Leyton Orient seriously.
Man City have struggled against top opposition of late, but they blew Salford City away in an 8-0 victory in the third round. Leyton Orient are a division above Salford, but they are still huge underdogs in this one.
The magic of the cup means we can never rule anything out, but Man City are likely to dominate this match from start to finish. Yet given they are more vulnerable than they once were, Leyton Orient could give Guardiola's team one or two things to think about.
