THE LOWDOWN
NEWCASTLE
- Newcastle remain unbeaten after two games but they certainly rode their luck in their goalless draw with Brighton last weekend, with a couple of goalline clearances and a typically stubborn Nick Pope to thank for the point they took home from the Amex.
- Late decisions will be made on the availability of Matt Targett and Ryan Fraser but Eddie Howe will be tempted to go with an unchanged XI here give how is men have performed so far.
MAN CITY
- The reigning champions were in full flight against Bournemouth last weekend, with Kevin De Bruyne typically outstanding in their 4-0 win, and they already find themselves at the top of the table after just two games.
- New signing Sergio Gomez will be in the travelling squad but the left-back is unlikely to be thrown straight into the mix, while Jack Grealish could find himself in the starting XI again with the Englishman still yet to find his best form in a Man City shirt.

THE PREDICTION
The two Premier League meetings between these sides last season saw Man City win by an aggregate score of 9-0 but this is an altogether different Newcastle side now, and it is one that is unlikely to roll over so easily. The Magpies have yet to concede a goal so far this season, but that that record will be put to the test against the champions, who will no doubt dominate possession. The visitors will find the hosts to be stubborn opponents, but that resistance will almost certainly be broken at some point, with a low-scoring victory – perhaps a win to nil – on the cards for Pep Guardiola’s men.
TIP: MAN CITY TO WIN TO NIL
