Newcastle vs Manchester City Main Match Info

Newcastle vs Manchester City Moneyline Prediction

Newcastle must try to gain at least a minimal advantage heading into the return leg. However, that won’t be easy given the Magpies‘ recent form. 

That said, Eddie Howe’s side are unbeaten at St. James’ Park in 13 matches, a run that includes 10 wins and three draws. They also defeated Man City 2-1 in the Premier League back in November.

Pep Guardiola is likely to adopt a measured approach in attack, as a draw would be a perfectly acceptable outcome for the Cityzens. With a demanding schedule ahead, we anticipate this game finishing level. 

Newcastle vs Manchester City Player Prop

Erling Haaland is averaging 4.09 shots per 90 minutes in the league. Newcastle’s underlying metrics are solid, but they still concede 1.29 goals per match. Cup fixtures against the Cityzens often turn into long spells of defending the box. 

Haaland thrives when Man City can pin opponents back. He leads the league in touches inside the opposition box (133), which is exactly where tap-ins, cutbacks, rebounds, and penalty-area fouls happen.

Newcastle at home can make it transitional, and if the game opens up, that helps a pure finisher more than an assister. Hence, the Norwegian looks well placed to find the net. 

Newcastle vs Manchester City Same Game Parlay

Draw: Neither team should take risks with a second leg on the horizon. While Man City are slight favourites, Pep Guardiola will likely be cautious. 

BTTS: At least three goals have been scored in 20 of Newcastle’s last 27 matches and in 13 of the visitors’ 18. While the clubs will be careful, keeping a clean sheet looks unlikely on both ends.

Erling Haaland to Score: Erling Haaland has been clinical so far, netting 20 goals in 21 Premier League appearances. Given Newcastle’s defensive issues, the Norwegian should strike at least once. 

Newcastle vs Manchester City Team News

Newcastle Team News 

After a dramatic victory over Bournemouth, Eddie Howe basically admitted they’ll “count the cost” of extra time with City in mind. Newcastle’s last couple of matches have been high-event affairs, which might take a toll amid a congested schedule. 

Harvey Barnes has been in great form recently, netting four goals in the last two encounters. Bruno Guimarães superbly dictates the midfield, while Anthony Gordon’s chance creation (1.4 per 90) has been instrumental for the club. 

Newcastle’s injury list is heavily tilted toward the back line. Fabian Schär, Tino Livramento, Dan Burn, Emil Krafth, Jamaal Lascelles, Anthony Elanga, and William Osula are all unavailable. 

Manchester City Team News

City have produced a goal-fest against Exeter, beating them 10-1 in a one-sided affair. Guardiola gave a chance to youngsters, with Max Alleyne netting the opener.

The headline news for Man City is undoubtedly the signing of Antoine Semenyo. The Ghanaian made an immediate impact, registering an assist and a goal while completing three successful dribbles. Phil Foden, Ryan Cherki, and Tijjani Reijnders also offer creative rotation options.

Man City’s biggest issue heading into this tie is defensive availability. Rúben Dias, Josko Gvardiol, and John Stones remain sidelined. These absences are huge for Guardiola’s usual build-from-the-back system.
