If you read my post very well, you'll come to a conclusion that I never doubted the superiority of Manchester City against other English Premier League teams but just like we saw a surprising result at Anfield early this month when Nottingham Forest narrowly defeated Liverpool, don't you think Newcastle have all it takes to shock Manchester City at home? Newcastle in my own assessment possess this mentality of believing in themselves in big games even when they weren't given a chance to succeed out of curiosity, I'm asking if you think they can pull a shocker against City?

Nothing is impossible, Newcastle could win their home match against Manchester City.
Newcastle have been a spirited side so far, so they could potentially spring a surprise on a team that has dominated the title for four lucky seasons. Reviewing the previous match against Arsenal, I think there is a weak side in Manchester City that Newcastle can still exploit to at least secure 1 point at home.

But don't think it's easy, so far Haaland is very difficult to stop. He routinely scores goals in every Manchester City match in the Premier League, so he is the most decisive player in the match. If Haaland plays well and can take advantage of many opportunities, then Manchester City will most likely win the match even if Newcastle can score a home goal.

Anything can happen in football; Newcastle might just be the team to shock Manchester City. However, Newcastle's performance in that 3-1 defeat against Fulham does not inspire much confidence. If Fulham managed to get the better of weaknesses in this Newcastle team, while Manchester City actually beat Fulham with a landslide scoreline of 4-0 win over Fulham in their previous match, then the quality gap between Newcastle and Man City is huge.

Manchester City isn't just Haaland, who is always a constant threat in front of goal. It's the depth of the squad that allows them to dominate the match. While Newcastle might put up s fight, given their current firm it becomes quite difficult to see them beating Man city or even holding them for a draw.
