Manchester City vs Southampton Prediction (25.04.2026)

Manchester City recently won the League Cup and is now one step away from the FA Cup final. Meanwhile, they have climbed to the top of the Premier League and have a chance for a domestic treble. They displaced Arsenal from first place after a 1:0 away win against Burnley on Wednesday, recording their fifth consecutive victory in all competitions, conceding only one goal in those matches.

It has been five years since Southampton's last semifinal in the tournament. They haven't reached the final since 2003. However, they are currently showing great form, even though they are in the Championship. They have gone 20 consecutive matches in all competitions without a loss. In the quarterfinals of this tournament, they managed to eliminate Arsenal after a home victory of 2:1. Now they dream of an upset against Man City in this semifinal clash at Wembley.

It is normal to expect a victory from Manchester City. However, my suggestion is that it should not be by more than two goals considering Southampton's performance and good form in recent months.
