Head to Head Stats

Prediction

  • Manchester City continue to chase a repeat of last season's treble. Heading into this game, they sit a point behind Premier League leaders Arsenal.
  • Pep Guardiola's side have already faced Newcastle three times this season, twice in the league and once in the Carabao Cup - City won both league meetings but were beaten at St James' Park in the cup.
  • Newcastle were beaten by Chelsea in a thrilling affair at Stamford Bridge on Monday night, a result that saw the Magpies fall to tenth in the Premier League.
  • The FA Cup, then, would appear to be the final chance for Eddie Howe's side to salvage something from what has been a relatively disappointing campaign.
  • The hosts should progress to the semi-finals for a sixth successive season.
