Defeat at Liverpool last Sunday left Manchester City's hopes of an unbeaten Premier League season in tatters but they are still 12 points clear at the top of the table. They need to get back in winning ways and two home matches against Newcastle United and West Brom should do the trick. City have won their last ten home league games and scored at least twice in each and every one of them. In all, they are unbeaten in their last 23 home league matches and should be able to make it 24 in this home game against Newcastle. United start the weekend in 15th place but that's only three points above the relegation zone. They are unbeaten in their last three league games and have won their last two on the road. However, there's a bit of a difference between winning at Stoke and West Ham and getting a victory at the Etihad. Newcaslte last won a league game against City in 2005 and haven't won any of the following 20. The last five visits to the Etihad in the Premier League have seen them concede 22 goals and there might be a few more this weekend. Go for over 2.5 goals in this match.
