Manchester City vs Newcastle Prediction & Betting tips
Just under a week after the 4-0 victory over national champion Liverpool, Manchester City again play a game at Etihad Stadium. Newcastle United will be a guest in Manchester on Wednesday evening. A week and a half ago, Manchester City won 0-2 against Newcastle United in St. James’ Park in the FA Cup.
Manchester City:
Last Thursday, Manchester City won 4-0 at home against Liverpool. The Citizens played the national champion off the mat for ninety minutes. Actually exactly the same did Manchester City on Sunday evening in the game against Southampton. After more than ninety minutes of football, however, there was a 1-0 final score on the scoreboard. At St. Mary’s Stadium, The Citizens fell behind early in the game. Pep Guardiola’s team then created opportunity after opportunity, but didn’t score.
It may be a bit of the story of Manchester City this season: The Citizens have too often missed points unnecessarily. As a result, the backlog at Liverpool is no less than 23 points. The defeat at Southampton was Guardiola’s third consecutive defeat in a league, which had never happened to the Spaniard as a manager. It was also the ninth league defeat of the season for Manchester City. This again shows that Manchester City is a lot less stable than the past two seasons when it took the Premier League title.
Newcastle United:
Newcastle United last won a league game visiting Manchester City twenty years ago. The Magpies lost ten of the last eleven encounters at Etihad Stadium, so they travel to Manchester with little confidence. A week and a half ago, Newcastle United were eliminated in the FA Cup by Manchester City and so Steve Bruce’s team has something to put right. At Newcastle United they can at least give everything at Etihad Stadium, because The Magpies have nothing to lose. Newcastle United is already sure of enforcement and is no longer playing for the Premier League.
Like Manchester City, Newcastle United also came into action last Sunday. The Magpies received a visit from West Ham United at St. James’ Park. The Geordies fell behind twice against the London club. In both cases Newcastle United managed to equalize by goals from Miguel Almirón and Jonjo Shelvey. The 2-2 draw against West Ham United was for Newcastle the sixth league game in a row in which The Magpies remained unbeaten. Only Manchester United are currently unbeaten for nine consecutive games longer than Bruce’s Newcastle United.
