Man City and Newcastle set to meet again this afternoon
We know that Man City has just gone through a series of 5 consecutive away matches in different arenas.
And surely definitely the Citizens won 3 of them.
Also the returning to Etihad’s home ground in this match
Yes, is definitely a big advantage for Man City, especially when they have to face a tough opponent, Newcastle.
However, Man City will be looking for catchup with Arsenal at the top
Know that green Man is having 5 consecutive victories at home. Victory over Bournemouth (away) last weekend also helped Man City continue to chase Arsenal with a gap of 5 points compared to the Gunners.
And now The race for the Premier League title this season is certainly very exciting ahead.
Man City team news : John Stones, Aymeric Laporte and Stefan Ortega are absent due to injury.
Newcastle team news: Matt Targett and Joe Willock are absent. Bruno Guimaraes is injured. Nick Pope is back.
On the opposite side, after a period of sublimation from the beginning to the middle of the season, Newcastle showed signs of slowing down.
And surely Chi Chi has only won 3 points in the last 4 matches in the Premier League. Currently, Eddie Howe’s army has dropped to 5th place in the rankings. They have 41 points after 23 games.
However, the Newcastle side are still 4 points behind the top team (Tottenham), but have played less than 2 matches. If it is possible to “wake up”, the home team of St. James’s Park can still confidently earn a ticket to next season’s UEFA Champions League. That is also the desire of the fans and the rich owners of this team.
