Preview
Manchester City have had some surprising results going into this cup tie and their morale is lower than we expected.
This could be a more open game as both sides look to rotate and could make for a chaotic day.
For Manchester City, they will be looking to centralize their midfield as Exeter will certainly be defensively tight.
This should be an exciting game as both sides will look to win and advance to the next round.
