Newcastle United welcome league leaders Manchester City at the St James stadium on Saturday on what will be the first English Premier League game of the weekend. With 6 games played, Eddie Howe's Newcastle are just three points behind Manchester City who occupies the first position. So my question now is do you think Manchester City will easily get all three points at Newcastle or do you expect the home team to get a good result against the reigning champions?

Newcastle has always been a difficult side for Manchester city to beat. Manchester city don't always find life easy at St. James park and I don't expect this one to be very different from what we have been seeing. Pep Guardiola has already hinted about how tough playing Newcastle has always been and With Rodri out and Kelvin status not fully confirmed if he will play or not. I think Newcastle will get the upper hand in this match. I don't think Manchester city will get the maximum points this weekend when they visit Newcastle. But if things go according to the analysis I have made, Manchester city should be able to get a draw from the match. Giving Manchester city an away win is not a very wise choice. If Manchester city is going to lose match anytime soon, I think it is going to be in this match. Newcastle always know how to slow Manchester city down for the past few years and I don't know how they usually do that.
I have thought about this match and I think Manchester City will find it difficult to defeat Newcastle because Newcastle is playing at home and Manchester City's best players are not in good condition, according to the news Manchester city best players we all know as Rodri will be out for the whole season and he is the reason why Manchester City defensive position looks strong because he helps the defensive player's to protect the opponents from scoring goal, Manchester City has Kovacic that can play the position but he is not that good as Rodri is and we all know how the absence of Rodri make Manchester city performance look.
Newcastle is a strong opponent that can Challenge Manchester City even if Rodri is not in the squad The absence of Rodri will make every Manchester City opponent feel comfortable when playing against Manchester and also give them a chance to score goals against Manchester City, pep Guardiola needs to fix his team because Kevin DE Bruyne is not also in good condition, anyone who wants to bet on the game should not bet on Manchester City to win, the only way to bet is to bet the game on over 1.5 or both teams to score a goal.
