Latest team news for Newcastle United vs Man City
Newcastle's back quartet, comprising Callum Wilson (back), Sven Botman, Jamaal Lascelles (all with knee injuries) and Lewis Miley (ankle), remain sidelined due to injury, with Wilson not expected to return until after the next international break.
Manager Eddie Howe may consider making changes at full-back, with Valentino Livramento and Lewis Hall potentially replacing Kieran Trippier and Lloyd Kelly. In midfield, Sandro Tonali could compete with Joe Willock for his first Premier League start of the season.
In-form Harvey Barnes is expected to be given a starting opportunity on the left wing, forming an attacking trio with Anthony Gordon and Alexander Isak. Both strikers have only scored one goal in Newcastle's opening five Premier League games, so finding attacking effectiveness is crucial for the team.
On Manchester City's side, they are facing the absence of star midfielder Rodri, who has suffered a knee ligament injury and could be out for the remainder of the season. Two other players, Oscar Bobb (broken leg) and Nathan Ake (muscle), are also recovering, while Kevin De Bruyne, who missed the last two games due to a groin injury, remains doubtful and will be assessed before the match.
After making nine changes in the Carabao Cup victory against Watford midweek, manager Pep Guardiola is expected to bring back several key players for the match against Newcastle. Names like first-choice goalkeeper Ederson, Manuel Akanji, Ruben Dias, Josko Gvardiol, Mateo Kovacic, Bernardo Silva, and Erling Haaland, who has scored 10 goals in five Premier League games this season, are expected to give Man City strength and effectiveness in this crucial match.

Latest football match prediction: Newcastle United vs Man City
Newcastle have accumulated 10 points from their opening four Premier League games, but these results mask a less than convincing start. They suffered their first defeat of the season against Fulham, losing 3-1 at Craven Cottage. Goals within the first 22 minutes from Raul Jimenez and Emile Smith Rowe gave Fulham control, although Harvey Barnes pulled one back for Newcastle early in the second half with his third goal in three consecutive games. However, Reiss Nelson's injury-time goal secured all three points for Fulham.
Following the defeat, manager Eddie Howe admitted it was "the worst game we've played" this season. Although Newcastle are currently sixth in the table, just three points behind the leaders, fans recognize the team needs improvement to maintain their high position. Newcastle were scheduled to play in the third round of the Carabao Cup, but their match against AFC Wimbledon was postponed due to "severe flooding," and will be rescheduled for October 1st at St James' Park.
Facing Man City, Newcastle will be looking to improve their form, especially considering they have only won one of their last 33 Premier League encounters. Although Man City made nine changes to their starting lineup in their 2-1 win against Watford in the Carabao Cup, they still maintained their high level of performance.
Man City will enter the match determined to extend their unbeaten run to 25 games, with a record of scoring in 31 consecutive matches against Newcastle in Premier League history. Despite the absence of star player Rodri, Pep Guardiola still has many quality players to fill the void, including Erling Haaland, who is leading the attack.
The match at St James' Park promises to be exciting, and Newcastle are hoping to show good form to recover from their weekend defeat. However, given Man City's strength, the defending champions are predicted to continue their winning streak.
