City have appeared in the semi-final stage for the last five seasons, reaching the final and winning the trophy twice. They face a Newcastle side that started the season brightly and with a lot of promise, but ultimately fell away in the second half of the season.
The match will be the tenth meeting between the two sides in the FA Cup and the fourth time they have clashed this season. City have won two of those three meetings, with the Toon knocking the blues out of the League Cup in September.
