“Underdogs on the Brink: Can Crystal Palace Shock Villa, and Will Forest Topple Manchester City in FA Cup Semi-Finals Sensation?”
Nuno did, however, get one over on another of his former clubs, Tottenham, on Monday night, with Forest’s 2-1 victory in North London reigniting their Champions League charge. The fit-again Chris Wood opened the scoring there, and what an occasion this would be for Forest’s big centre-forward to notch his first FA Cup goal of 2024/25 and reach 20 for the campaign in all competitions.
By contrast, City have made history by being semi-finalists in each of the past six seasons, reaching the final in three of them and going on to lift the trophy in 2019 and 2023. Making it to this stage again sees them become the ninth club to play in 20 FA Cup semis – and seven of those have been under Pep Guardiola. City are aiming to reach their 12th final overall, which would see them either equal or leapfrog Aston Villa.
