Fitness doubts around Emil Krafth and Matt Targett give Howe decisions to make at full-back, where Kieran Trippier's versatility could see him fielded at left-back. Fresh from their Saudi takeover, Newcastle were beaten 4-0 and 5-0 by City last season but the optimism and momentum around Eddie Howe’s side continues to build. After a sensible rather than outlandish summer in the transfer market, they can provide the champions with their toughest test of the season so far.

Manchester City has only lost one of its last 29 Premier League games against Newcastle. An interesting thing to note is that Pep Guardiola has never lost one of the ten matches against Eddie Howe. Welcome to Sportstar’s highlights of the Newcastle United vs Manchester City Premier League match from St James’ Park stadium.
Newcastle and Manchester City staged a six-goal show at St. James' Park on Sunday, the Magpies matching their would-be blueprint holders blow-for-blow.
Just as Chelsea was a blueprint for Man City after its big takeover, Newcastle is looking to Man City (and others) for how to fast-forward a rise to top-four and eventually title contender. Still grey area in VAR: Kieran Trippier’s improbably-perfect free kick goal was his highlight (see below), but the way his red card was changed to a yellow will lead to a lot of questions from Pep Guardiola and his crew. Max at one end, and the holy gloves of Pope at the other. Draw (+400) Newcastle can play: Eddie Howe has always viewed himself as a lover of the wide-open game and Newcastle has the horses to run over, around, and through teams if they aren’t at their best. Both Ake and Stones can work next to a Ruben Dias or Aymeric Laporte, but Ake in particular has struggled to find that next level since arriving from Bournemouth.
Goals from Miguel Almiron, Callum Wilson and Kieran Trippier put Man City 3-1 down with half an hour remaining, before two in four minutes, first from Erling ...
During the first half, there was one run where Walker backtracked 40 yards towards his own goal and then allowed Saint-Maximin to put the ball on a plate for Miguel Almiron and yet Walker would still consider that he made the best of the situation. Still finding his place in this City team but alive to the opportunity when it mattered 7 Phil Foden: Failed to square the ball when Haaland surely would have scored, instead drawing an early save from Pope, but was probably City’s best player in the first half. Curate’s egg of a performance with an assured game on the ball but troubled afternoon off it 7 Allan Saint-Maximin: Typically lively early on and produced a fine cross for the equaliser. Kieran Trippier: Full-blooded block on Cancelo’s early cross was important but also found plenty of space going forward and scored a stellar free-kick against the club he played for as a schoolboy.
The visitors took the lead at St. James' Park through Ilkay Gundogan, but goals from Miguel Almiron, Callum Wilson and Kieran Trippier - the latter with a ...
As defenders close in, the Frenchman rolls the ball into the path of Wilson, who takes a touch and finishes well to beat Ederson. Saint-Maximin receives a long ball on halfway and weaves through the City midfield. City’s captain controls the ball and hammers his shot past Nick Pope. He won free kick after free kick in the second half as City gave up trying to stop him legitimately. Newcastle: 2.3xG - Newcastle created easily the highest expected goals that Manchester City have conceded this season. They showed a real vulnerability to aggressive pressure, which Newcastle's front four were only too willing to provide. Almiron leans way back and fires his shot into row z. He was vital to Newcastle’s gameplan and played his role perfectly. City caused chaos at a corner, winning another in the confusion. Logically, the space is there to attack. The crucial element was Saint-Maximin. The visitors had exploited poor defending from Newcastle to open the scoring after just five minutes.

1hr to kickoff: Guardiola hands Bernardo Silva his first start of the season in the City front three alongside Phil Foden and Erling Haaland. 40 mins to kickoff: Silva thrived in midfield last season and only tended to feature in the forward line as a false nine. 30 mins to kickoff: Hmmm, a possible injury concern for City in the warmup. 1st minute: Stones is harrassed into giving a throw-in away and Newcastle continue the attack by winning a corner. There'll be a change in the City back four with Ake hobbling off and Ruben Dias entering the fray. City have the ball at the back and Guardiola's men could do with one of their customary spells of possession. There'll be more than the allocated five minutes and it promises to be a test for the reshaped Newcastle defence. Silva arrows a dangerous pass across his own half and Rodri has to retrieve the situation. 78th minute: City shuffled the ball around the Newcastle box, ending with a prodded half chance for Haaland. Looking at the results some of their fellow Premier League heavyweights have endured in August, City might be very happy to have escaped with a draw. By the time Nick Pope made the first of a catalogue of fine saves to thwart De Bruyne with his boots, it looked like City might run away with things. Trippier was then at the centre of drama when he was red-carded for a challenge on De Bruyne, before VAR downgraded it to a yellow.
