Peterborough v Manchester City live stream, Tuesday 1 March, 7.15pm GMT

The FA Cup has a well-earned reputation as a competition of upsets, but Peterborough knocking out Manchester City on Tuesday would surely be among the biggest in recent memory. 

Granted, Posh are a Championship side and there have been bigger gaps between teams in the English football pyramid before, but the contrasting form of the two sides means the hosts need a minor miracle to reach the quarter-finals.

City’s hard-earned 1-0 win at Everton on Saturday saw them bounce back from defeat to Tottenham a week earlier, leaving them six points clear at the top of the Premier League table. 

The Citizens have played some mesmerising football this season, and cruised into the fifth round of the FA Cup with 4-1 wins over Swindon and Fulham.

Peterborough are aiming to reach the quarter-final stage for the first time since 1965, but they head into Tuesday’s tie in rotten form.

Grant McCann’s side are winless in their last six games, losing five of them, and sit rock-bottom of the Championship table with just five wins all season in 33 league games.

They defeated Bristol Rovers and Queens Park Rangers to make it this far, but they will have to reach another level to topple Guardiola’s star-studded side.

Kick-off is at 7.15pm GMT on Tuesday 1 March, and it is on ITV and STV. See below for international broadcast options.

VPN guide

Use a VPN to watch Premier league football from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there, including:
