I want to say otherwise, it will not be easy for Newcastle to overthrow the reigning Premier League champions. although most people say, that City was not impressive in the match against Sevilla. in the match vs Sevilla, City did not play some of their core players due to several factors. Injured De Bruyne, Silva, John Stones, Pep are preparing for the Premier League competition. in this match, it seems that Pep will use the pattern that is his mainstay.
Yes, that's why people are too confident that Newcastle can beat Manchester city, even in every meeting of the two, Manchester City is far superior to Newcastle. After all, Guardiola has thought of several key injured players and to replace several key players so they can play to fill the void in several lines. Guardiola always has a way to strategize to win and get points.
Even though we saw some shortcomings against Sevilla before that doesn't mean Manchester City looks inconsistent, I believe Manchester City can beat Newcastle even though they have to win narrowly, because of course Newcastle doesn't want to lose points and will definitely play well, but whatever it is, my bet is still on manchester city.
