Newcastle vs Man City prediction
Newcastle managed to end a woeful Premier League run of form with an impressive 2-1 defeat of Manchester United at St James' Park the other day with the ten men Magpies launched to victory via an excellent solo effort scored by young striker Will Osula.
Manchester City gave up ground in the Premier League title race in midweek, now seven points behind Arsenal. That is because City twice gave up a lead to eventually share a 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest at the Etihad Stadium.
City will rotate ahead of facing Real Madrid in midweek and Newcastle, focused on the cups, may well be confident of repeating their defeat of City from the league fixture on Tyneside back in November.
Newcastle vs Man City tip: Double chance - Newcastle to win or draw
