If they don't go low block against us and open up, we're capable of tearing them a new one.
However I suspect Eddy won't disappoint with a back 9.

Honestly, I believe City will win. I think Newcastle offensive system still is subpar, but their defensive game is really good. So I think they will eventually concede against us and will not have the offensive power to try a better result.
My biggest worry is about Haaland goalscoring. He needs goals to feel more relaxed and adapted. He also said a big reason why he came to City was how many touches/opportunities the system creates. He almost didn't touch the ball last match.
So I hope he can score against Newcastle. The sooner he is relaxed and confident in the system, the better.

Everything seems to be going too perfectly at the moment. I'm starting to feel a draw might be coming.Barcodes not to be underestimated. Some decent players and a very shrewd manager. Would settle for a draw here.

If we draw it is what it is, but I don’t get how you won’t back your team to get a win at Newcastle.

We have better players and a better manager, We always do well against Howe teams. It could be a surprise result but why would expect anything other than a win.Barcodes not to be underestimated. Some decent players and a very shrewd manager. Would settle for a draw here.

When Howe was at Bournemouth he sent his teams out to kick City off the pitch, with the advent of VAR he may be a little reluctant but they will kick us. Still think we will beat them.
I doubt that is realism.Realism
Realism is that we are one of the best team in the world while Newcastle are a midtable club at best.
We have lost to norwich before so it is not impossible to lose to Newcastle, but if we are at our best we should beat Newcastle.
