Newcastle v Man City Team News

Newcastle have been on a good run of form in recent weeks but saw that rollercoaster ride come to a halt last time out in a thrilling encounter against Aston Villa. The Villas slotted two unanswered goals past them by the end of the ninety minutes to send shockwaves around Tyneside.

Their attackers definitely left their scoring boots behind in the dressing room for this game, having registered five shots on goal without forcing a single one of them past the goalkeeper. The strikers must have received the hair-dryer treatment from Steve Bruce as they headed back home empty-handed.

That said, the Magpies are still unbeaten in their last five fixtures in front of the home crowd, and will be hoping to take confidence from this when the Citizens come around town this weekend. They should have enough about themselves to offer some resistance to the reigning champions.

As the floodlights shun on the players at the Etihad Stadium during the Champions League clash between Manchester City and Shakhtar Donetsk in midweek, both sides were forced to settle for a point at the end of ninety minutes.

Pep Guardiola seems to have lost that killer instinct that saw him lead this club to Premier League success last season. A hammering 3-1 loss to Liverpool in the league, followed by a one-all draw against lowly Shakhtar Donetsk in Europe has been greeted by jeers from supporters and the media alike.

The Spanish gaffer knows he has to get back to winning ways this weekend against Newcastle, if he doesn’t want to begin fielding questions from the club’s hierarchy about his team’s performances this season.

However, the visitors have reasons to feel optimistic about securing bragging rights in this tie. They have lost only two away games so far in their domestic campaign, one of which was to high-flying Liverpool and the supporters can have no complaints about that one.

The Magpies, on the other hand, have registered only two victories on this ground all season. To pile on even more misery, the home side have managed to defeat City just once in their last ten clashes at St. James Park.

Injured or Suspended Players:

Newcastle: Jamaal Lascelles, Matt Ritchie, Florian Lejeune.

Man City: Leroy Sané, Aymeric Laporte, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Sergio Agüero.

Newcastle vs Man City Predictions

Guardiola’s side have been racking up the goals so far this season, with a record thirty-seven goals scored, seven more than any other side in the league. They definitely know where the goalpost is at.

Given that sixteen of those goals have come on their travels, expect the Citizens to breach their foes nothing less than three times in this match. Sergio Aguero will fancy getting his name on the scoresheet, to lead his side to a very comfortable win in this fixture.
