Newcastle vs Manchester City Match Preview and Team News
Newcastle
Newcastle won’t have too many complaints about their start to the season, which has brought them a total of 4pts and two clean sheets so far. The game against Brighton won’t live long in the memory, but both teams did have chances to win the game, and on the balance of play, a draw was probably a fair result. Sean Longstaff plays well in the middle of the park, and he does not allow the opponent much action. Allan Saint-Maximin plays excellently, he is fast in the one-on-one game, and he is unstoppable, he deserves to play in a better team. Kell Watts (Knee Injury) and Jonjo Shelvey (Hamstring Injury) will be missing for Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe.
Manchester City
Man City put four goals past Bournemouth without reply, and none of them were scored by Erling Haaland. Gundogan fired the home side in front after 19-minutes, and De Bruyne scored a lovely goal to make it 2-0 just after the half-hour mark. Foden scored a third before the break, and in the second forty-five, Lerma put through his own goal 11-minutes from time to wrap up a 4-0 victory for Man City. Erling Haaland top scores for Man City in the Premier League this season with 2-goals in his opening two appearances. The Norwegian striker is the favorite to win the Golden Boot ahead of Salah and Kane this season, and we’re expecting big things from the young goal machine. City has plenty of options within their side that can score goals, but Haaland is now the club’s penalty taker and will lead the line against Newcastle, so the odds are he will score. Riyad Mahrez is the engine of this team, his greatest virtue is speed, he has excellent ball control, and he can be satisfied with his performance. In an otherwise available squad, there is just one fitness issue for the Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola to be concerned with. Aymeric Laporte (Knee Surgery) won’t be playing here.
