Newcastle United travel to the North West this weekend to take on Manchester City. Pep Guardiola’s side will be looking to bounce back from their extra-time exit to Real Madrid in the Champions League.
The Magpies are all but safe but that doesn’t mean the players have laid down their tools - especially given most are fighting for their futures. The Magpies have had a unique chance to impact the Premier League title race having faced both Liverpool and now City.
United lost to Liverpool one-nil at St James’ Park but gave a good account of themselves, and will be hoping to get a better result against City. Guardiola’s men currently lie top of the Premier League table but could start the game against Newcastle in second place if Liverpool beat Tottenham on Saturday evening.
