Manchester City will look to put an extra pressure on league leaders Arsenal when thy face Newcastle United in the Premier League round 27. As Newcastle suit Man City, we predict a 3-1 home win. The Citizens have found their best form of late, with the team winning each of their last four games in all competitions. As Pep Guardiola’s men have been scoring 2.40 goals per home game of late, there is big value in betting on the title hopefuls. Defender Max Alleyne is a major doubt after picking up a knock in a 2-0 FA Cup win over Salford, while several first-team regulars return to the starting XI.
The Magpies, on the other hand, are high on confidence following a 3-1 FA Cup win over Aston Villa, but they will have a mountain to climb at Etihad Stadium. As Newcastle have suffered a loss in each of the previous 16 meetings with Man City at the venue, away win should not be considered. Adding to their woes, Eddie Howe’s men have been conceding 1.67 goals per away game of late. Midfielder Joelinton should recover in time to face the Citizens.
Man City are leading the H2H record and given their recent signs of improvement, anything but a routine Home Win would be a big surprise. Additionally, Man City Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total bets seem interesting.
This Premier League match will be played on Saturday 21 February 2026 at 20:00.
