Manchester City couldn't get past Madrid in the UCL semis and so now their only focus remains the Premier League title. They have an easy road ahead of them but not one without peril. Newcastle will be the first obstacle in their path towards the trophy. One simple mistake in any of their remaining four matches could cost them everything so things should be interesting. Make sure to check out our betting preview of Man City v Newcastle.

Manchester City will host Newcastle during Matchweek 36. City have four matches to go until the season ends, including this upcoming one on 8 May. After bowing out of the Champions League earlier, the Citizens’ focus shifts towards winning the Premier League. They’ve been on top for a long time but there is still room for mistakes. Newcastle’s remaining fixtures include City, Arsenal, and Burnley. Not the most ideal of opponents but the best they can do now is to focus on next season. It’s no wonder that the Man City v Newcastle betting preview favours the Manchester side. Newcastle’s chances of winning are little to none but with a bit of luck, they could still upset City’s title hopes. In doing that, Newcastle might unintentionally give Liverpool the title and a bigger chance of accomplishing the quadruple.

City’s previous losses were in the UCL and FA Cup semis. One on the road, the other at home. Before that, the last time they lost a home league match was in February, against Tottenham. Newcastle have won four of their last five fixtures but none of those wins were against the Premier League top clubs. Additionally, they only won two of their last five away matches. There are no recent injuries on either side. The last time Newcastle won against City was in the 2018-2019 season so don’t expect big things on Sunday. Betting previews all favour Man City over Newcastle. In conclusion, City’s chances of winning the league are good since Liverpool’s remaining schedule is considered a bit more difficult. It would be a shame to end such a season with no major trophies.
