The reigning Premier League champions showed no mercy against their League One opponents in the first leg after thrashing them 9-0 at the Etihad.The second leg on Wednesday, live on talkSPORT 2, will all but certainly see City progress to the final but is a case of how many Burton can limit them to.The Cityzens came in for criticism for not letting up in their assault on their opponents.

Manchester City were relentless in the first leg

The current aggregate win record stands at 11 here are the five times that feat has been achieved.

Liverpool 11-0 Exeter, 1981-82

The previous record was ‘just’ 8-0 on aggregate, by Southampton against Wrexham two years earlier. The Reds blew that out of the water with the first double-figure margin, winning 5-0 at home and 6-0 at St James Park with Ian Rush scoring twice in each leg.

West Ham 12-1 Bury, 1983-84

There seemed little prospect of such a rout when the Hammers won just 2-1 in the first leg but a 10-0 second leg, with four goals from a 19-year-old Tony Cottee, changed the complexion of the tie.

Liverpool 13-2 Fulham, 1986-87

That 12-1 aggregate was a record high until surpassed by Liverpool against Fulham in 1986. Steve McMahon scored four and missed a penalty in a 10-0 win at Anfield, with Rush and John Wark also scoring twice apiece, and a 3-2 second leg – with McMahon again on target – set a new highest aggregate.

Watford 11-0 Darlington, 1987-88

Watford got in on the act the following year with an 11-0 aggregate win over Darlington, winning 3-0 in the north-east and then 8-0 back at Vicarage Road with seven different scorers including a Peter Hetherston double.

Everton 11-0 Wrexham, 1990-91

Cottee was at it again as his new employers ran riot, scoring a hat-trick in a 5-0 first-leg win in north Wales and opening the scoring in a 6-0 win at Goodison Park before strike partner Graeme Sharp took centre stage with a treble.
