Man City vs Newcastle: Pep’s side continue to chase league leaders Arsenal against deflated Magpies – TV, stream, odds
MANCHESTER CITY look to close the gap on Premier League leaders Arsenal with victory over a deflated Newcastle side.
City put four past struggling Bournemouth in an emphatic 4-1 away win.
Erling Haaland, Julián Álvarez and Phil Foden were all among the goals at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday.
Elsewhere, Newcastle will feel deflated having recently lost 2-0 in the Carabao Cup final against Manchester United.
However, Eddie Howe’s side have only tasted defeat twice in the Premier League this season – both loses coming against Liverpool.
So the Magpies boss will be determined to see his side get back on track for a top-four finish.
