The Newcastle vs Man City odds are heavily in favor of the citizens, and they are worth 1.62 (8/13) odds to win on the best football online betting sites. Eddie Howe’s team are heavy underdogs at 5.00 (4/1), while a draw is valued at 4.33 (10/3).
Newcastle’s last home win in the Premier League against Manchester City was as far back as 2019 and they suffered a 3-2 defeat at home last time, courtesy of a late winner from Oscar Bobb. The Citizens have won the last five meetings against Newcastle in the Premier League, and they have lost only three of the last 31 fixtures.
Newcastle United tasted their first defeat of the season in a 3-1 loss to Fulham and they haven’t been at their best defensively. The hosts have a good record at home, winning their first two home games in the PL this season, and there’s a good chance they will make this a difficult tie for the Citizens. Eddie Howe has failed to beat Man City in the EPL match since assuming his role as Newcastle coach and he needs players like Alexander Isak to turn up for a result at home.
Callum Wilson is ruled out with a back injury amidst transfer talks of him leaving the club. Jamaal Lascelles and Sven Botman aren’t expected to be back in the team until next year while Lewis Miley remains on the sidelines.
Manchester City had to settle for a point against a 10-man Arsenal team and they will fancy their chances against a team with only one clean sheet this season. Pep Guardiola’s team are top of the table after the first five games and they are the top contenders for the title on the 24/25 EPL betting predictions. Manchester City haven’t dropped points on the road this season, picking up wins against West Ham and Chelsea, and beat Watford 2-1 in the EFL Cup on Tuesday before this clash.
Rodrigo Hernandez is out for the season after a cruciate ligament injury against Arsenal, and he joins Kevin De Bruyne as players unfit for this clash. The Citizens will also travel without Nathan Ake and Oscar Bobb but they welcome Phil Foden back to the team.

Manchester City has played five competitive games this season, winning five of those matches and dropping points to just Arsenal and Inter Milan. Newcastle doesn’t have enough quality to match Inter’s or Arsenal’s performance against City, and they could be headed for a sixth consecutive loss to the Citizens. Man City has kept just two clean sheets in seven games while Newcastle has scored in all their matches this season. A win for Guardiola’s team is the best offer on the Newcastle vs City odds, but the hosts should score at least one goal in front of the home crowd.

Erling Haaland’s opener against Arsenal was his 100th club goal with Manchester City and the Golden Boot will most likely carry his name again this year. The Norwegian striker has been in sensational form, scoring 10 goals in his first five league games. Arsenal has the best defense in the league and it took Erling Haaland only nine minutes to score against the Gunners. A bet on the prolific number nine to score is a very good offer on the Newcastle vs Man City predictions.

Pep Guardiola’s setup gives them a lot of chances from corners and it’s no coincidence to see them ranked second on most corners in the 24/25 PL season. Only Tottenham has won more corners than Manchester City this season, and the Citizens are averaging 8.8 corners. The Premier League Champions had eight corners against Arsenal and ten in the last game vs Watford. A bet on Man City to get at least seven corners is a good option on Newcastle vs Man City betting tips.
