Newcastle United - Manchester City predictions

The hosts will have little to hope for in this match. The betting odds work against them and so does the overall impression. They are a weaker side here and it would be a proper upset if they manage to beat Manchester City.

With a price of 2.00 on them winning, City should definitely feel more confident going into this match. Of course, the difference is not insurmountable, so we’d say a draw is quite likely as well.

Newcastle United will have the support of their home fans, but that didn’t help them too much in the previous round. Despite relatively favourable betting odds and a lead in the first half of that game, they lost the bout to a convincing 3:1 goal difference.

The visiting team won their previous Premier League matchup 3:0 after maintaining a lead throughout the runtime. Their home supporters were likely glad to enjoy the HT/FT victory, but the favourable pre-match betting odds mean that the victory was quite expected.

The hosts will be looking to cut down on the number of goals they concede. They’ve recorded more than 5 total concessions over the last 3 matches, which is usually a cause for concern.

City netted 6 goals in their last three showdowns, which means this match might be a great chance to look at Over Goals markets. With some luck, a confirmed Over 4.5 seems quite plausible.

As clear underdogs in this match, The Magpies can’t be feeling too confident right now. They placed 14th on the table so far. Though there’ll have most of the season to claw their way up, earning any points at all against The Citizens will be quite difficult.

The Sky Blues fans are hoping the squad will be able to continue their successful streak as the season moves forward. The first few rounds brought them to the 2nd place on the table. However, this match in St. James' Park will be quite challenging and keeping up the pace until the end of the season even more so.

The visiting team proved their dominance over The Citizens last season when they secured a convincing victory with a comfortable lead. Some things have changed since then, of course, but it’s obvious they’re more likely to come out on top again.

An exciting game is in store as both teams have their full rosters available due to no injuries or suspensions.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.67 odds offered at 888Sport.
