=10.5ptCity started the season strongly, with a win over Chelsea in the Community Shield and followed it up with a win over Arsenal away from home and a 6 – 1 home demolition of Huddersfield but they were asked serious questions by Wolves last time out and Newcastle, who are winless in eight matches will want to borrow a leaf. The result left City fifth on the log heading to match day four but heading back home for this game should buoy them against a Newcastle side that has so far been unconvincing, with their only positive result in the last five being the barren draw with another struggling side – Cardiff City. Newcastle were unfortunate to lose to Chelsea in their last league game but they are now out of the League Cup after falling 1 – 3 to Nottingham Forest and it doesn’t look too good for them. They will be facing a side with 17 wins in 20 home games in the league stretching to the past season. Newcastle on their part, have just three wins to show in their last 15 matches and nine losses. Newcastle have four wins in 31 away league games, which places them as heavy underdogs here. They have however managed to score in ten of their last 15 away matches in the league, and Manchester City have conceded in ten of their last 15 league games at home, winning 13 in the process. Head to head the two sides have played 140 times and City have managed 55 wins and Newcastle 52.
