But you will never underestimate the Newcastle team because they can upset the teams in their home ground and City is currently facing a few injuries of their main players like Rodri and De Bruyne.
I don’t think anyone is underestimating any club, and with the current condition of Manchester City, I don’t think Guardiola will underestimate any club because he won’t want to lose points unnecessarily. I know Manchester City are currently facing injury problems, but even without players that are injured, then Manchester City will still be able to win Newcastle because there is a replacement for those players on injury, so if not that Manchester City are playing against strong teams, it’s not really going to have a serious impact on the club’s performance.
We'll see after tomorrow's game how Guardiola can get a win against Newcastle when they have a bit of an injury problem, and anyway their reserves are enough to cover the main vacant positions, they don't have a big void to be considered bad.
Newcastle do have a pretty good performance, they also have a pretty solid game, now in 6th place in the English premier league table getting 3 wins one draw and one loss in the previous match against Fulham, so there is still a slight chance of winning, although it is more likely to end in a draw again.
Manchester city and Newcastle meeting tomorrow at Newcastle's home will be very interesting. Till this minute, I am not sure if I should play a win for city, because as it stands, they won't be in action with two important players, which are de bryune and rodri. I am not sure of how city will compete and snatch all points from Newcastle, but I think they need to do that if they have to stay at the top for the time being. I might just play the game a draw since City will be playing away from home, and without two key players.
I feel Newcastle attack can do a little damage to city's defense due to the high press football that pep plays often. And I also think Haaland might be unstoppable tomorrow. And I am not sure of how tonali's relationship have been with eddy howe since he made his return from a long term suspension. I will like to see in him action tomorrow, maybe coming from the bench will do.
