Can the EPL Champions Strike Back with a Win?

Man City were putting together a decent run in the Premier League, winning four and drawing two of six. However, they were brought back down to earth with a bump by Arsenal, crashing to a heavy 5-1 defeat at the Emirates Stadium.

The English champions endured more woe in midweek when they lost 3-2 to Real Madrid in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League play-off. City have left themselves with much to do in the Spanish capital.

Newcastle are fresh off the back of two cup wins. They beat Arsenal to reach the EFL Cup final before seeing off Birmingham City in the FA Cup. However, Eddie Howe’s men have lost two of their three in the Premier League.

Man City will be desperate to bounce back from the Arsenal and Real Madrid defeats, but Newcastle are not an easy nut to crack. This promises to be a fascinating fixture at the Etihad Stadium.
