The relegation puzzle is solved and the Premier League has a new champion and two sides involved in the two ends will be facing off as Manchester City travels to Newcastle United. City claimed their third league title in four years after Manchester United’s loss at home to Leicester City and they go to this game with 80 points in the bag, 41 more than 16th placed Newcastle. The win over Leicester City in Newcastle’s last game, coupled with Fulham’s loss guaranteed safety for the Magpies and they won’t be so pressured here. Newcastle have three wins in their last five matches but are without a clean sheet in the last eight. They lost 2-0 to Arsenal in their last home league game, making it the third straight away game they’ve conceded two or more goals, and nine away games without a clean sheet. Newcastle have managed just five wins in 17 league games at home.

With two trophies in the bag, City can now afford to fully focus on the UEFA Champions League final, where they’ll be taking on Chelsea. The loss to Chelsea in the league in their last game, was City’s third loss in the last 27 league matches. In seven of their last 10 league matches, City have scored two or more goals and away from home, they have 11 straight wins in the league. With 13 away wins in 17 league matches, City have the best away record in the league. City have achieved all they can play for in the league this season and with a game against Chelsea in the Champions League final on the way, they may rest key players. Kevin De Bruyne has had injury issues lately and he leads among the candidates to be left out of this game.
