In contrast, Manchester City has showcased their prowess with two wins and one loss in their recent outings. A commanding 3-0 win over Liverpool and a 3-1 victory against Bournemouth highlight their attacking threat, although they stumbled in a 1-0 defeat away at Aston Villa. City has been defensively robust, averaging 0.8 goals conceded per game and securing three clean sheets in their last five matches. Their attack remains potent, with an average of 1.4 goals scored per game, bolstered by an expected goals figure of 1.604.
Final Prediction
Manchester City appears to have the upper hand due to their strong defensive record and consistent goal-scoring ability. Their ability to maintain clean sheets could be a decisive factor in this match. Football fans should keep an eye on Manchester City's defensive organization and how Newcastle's offense manages to break through, given their recent scoring performances.
