Showmax Premier League subscribers get FA Cup quarter-final games
This weekend, football fans can catch all the FA Cup quarter final drama live on Showmax Premier League, including the mammoth clash between Manchester United and Liverpool at Old Trafford on Sunday.
Over and above the Premier League games that will be shown live on Showmax Premier League this weekend, football fans can also catch all the action from the FA Cup at no additional cost.
On Saturday, Coventry City travel to the Molineux to take on Wolverhampton Wanderers, in what is expected to be a spicy affair, while later that evening Premier League champions Manchester City will lock horns with Newcastle United in an all-Premier League affair.
On Sunday, Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea will battle it out with high flying championship team Leicester City, before the biggest derby in world football takes stage as bitter rivals Manchester United face off against an in-form Liverpool at Old Trafford.
Liverpool have a history of facing Man United in the FA Cup, but the two haven’t met since 2021.
The last meeting between the two teams took place at Old Trafford, with United triumphing 3-2 thanks to a 78th-minute free kick from Portuguese maestro Bruno Fernandes.
That remains Liverpool's only meeting in the FA Cup against Man United in the Jürgen Klopp era. The last win over their bitter rivals in the competition came in January 2012, where goals from Daniel Agger and Dirk Kuyt secured a 2-1 win at Anfield.
The two teams will lock horns again in the Premier League in three weeks’ time, with Liverpool looking to keep up the pace with title challengers Arsenal and Man City, while Man United will be aiming to push for a top four spot.
Showmax will also be showcasing all the Premier League games live this weekend, including matches between Burnley and Brentford, Luton and Nottingham Forest, Fulham and Spurs, and West Ham and Aston Villa.
Showmax also launched an exhilarating Premier League documentary series that delves into the captivating creation of the world's greatest football league on 13 March 2024.
