Bristol City midfielder Korey Smith sets sights on another cup upset ahead of Manchester City clash

Bristol City hero Korey Smith is determined to be part of another cup shock against Manchester City as he reacquaints himself with the Etihad Stadium.

Smith scored a 90th-minute winner against Manchester United last month to set up a two-legged Carabao Cup semi-final with runaway Premier League leaders City.

The first tie will be played in Manchester on Tuesday night and Smith, who spent the 2013-14 season at nearby Oldham as captain under current Bristol City manager Lee Johnson, hopes familiarity breeds success.

'I lived around the corner from there and used to drive past the stadium a lot,' Smith said.
