FA Cup Sunday: Your online matchday guide
Sunday is a bumper day of FA Cup action for Southampton Football Club, as both the men’s and women’s first-teams face huge matches in the competition – and we’ll be bringing you a special day of build-up and coverage right across our digital channels.
As well as broadcasting full live coverage of the Vitality Women’s FA Cup fourth-round tie between Lewes and Saints, we’ll have a host of shows throughout the day building up to the Emirates FA Cup semi-final tie between Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side and Leicester City.
Host Steve Forbes is joined by a roundtable of journalists who regularly cover the team for a look ahead to the semi-final. Hear from BBC Radio Solent’s sports editor Adam Blackmore, Premier League Productions reporter Paul Belverstone, Daily Mail reporter Adrian Kajumba and NBC Sports journalist Joe Prince-Wright, as they help us begin our build-up to the game.
