Before Betting On Newcastle United vs Manchester City
It has been a fine start to the season for both Newcastle United and Manchester City, with both sides looking to build on strong finishes to the 2021-22 season. It’s unlikely that the Toon will find themselves back in another relegation scrap this term, and instead their target will be to challenge for a place in Europe. Meanwhile, City will be looking to win yet another Premier League title under Pep Guardiola.
City has an excellent record in this fixture, as they have won their previous five matches against Newcastle. They have also scored at least four goals in each of the previous three fixtures between the two sides. City’s attacking threat is clear for all to see, as they have scored once in their last 27 Premier League fixtures.
Newcastle has picked up just a single victory against City from the previous 29 meetings between the sides, with that win coming back in January 2019. However, the Toon has started the season in very good form, as they are yet to concede a goal in the Premier League. The last time that they went the opening three league games of the new season without conceding came back in the 1961-62 season.
