Newcastle Utd vs Man City Prediction

Newcastle Utd collected seven points from their last three matches, as they ran out 1-2 and 2-0 winners against Burnley and Nottingham F., respectively. Against Brighton, they had to settle for a draw after a 0-0 draw. Newcastle Utd showed little mercy in their past six matches at St James' Park, of which they won five, drew none and lost once. They hit the target eight times, while letting in two themselves.

Europe is the dream target for Newcastle Utd, while a top half finish is the least the visitors must accomplish for their latest Premier League campaign.

In their last three matches, Man City lost against Liverpool by 3-1, beat West Ham by 0-2 winning 4-0 against Bournemouth. In their last six Premier League away matches, Man City won a very acceptable four times. They've also drawn twice and lost none, scoring 15 while also conceding three times.

Man City have one eye on the big prize, although a spot in the top two looks the safer bet as the Premier League gets rolling.

We don't expect Newcastle Utd to pull off a surprise, and with goals flowing freely, they could be in for a hammering against strong looking Man City.
