Manchester City have layed the groundwork for this game after their 1-3 result versus Real Madrid, a game they learned a lot from. Will they show it against Newcastle United?

Insights:
  • Manchester City have the fewest conceded goals (21) in Premier League
  • Manchester City have scored more than double the goals of Newcastle United.

Little time to rest for the home team, as they had a Champions League fixture only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Real Madrid.

Newcastle United form and stats

There's been little loot from Newcastle United's travels as they have only collected 16 points from 17 away games in the Premier League. Newcastle United only have 4 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 4 draws.

Newcastle United failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Liverpool (placed 2nd) that ended with defeat 0-1. It's worrying for Newcastle that their goalkeeper Dúbravka made nine saves in the Liverpool game, but still couldn't prevent a loss.

Before that one, a nice away victory 3-0 at Norwich City.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Newcastle United as they have only managed to score 16 times from 17 away games in the league. Newcastle United have conceded 29 goals in these games.
