Manchester City v Newcastle United Premier League Betting Tips 08/05/2022

Manchester City v Newcastle United

Manchester City’s only chance of silverware this season remains in the Premier League, so have a read of our Manchester City v Newcastle United Premier League Betting Tips 08/05/2022. The Citizens have crashed out of the FA Cup and Champions League in recent weeks. But they hold the cards in the title race, sitting one point clear of Liverpool atop the table. Newcastle are City’s opponents this weekend and Eddie Howe’s side has been in solid form recently, which could cause problems for Pep Guardiola’s City. This match kicks off at 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, and it will be shown live on Sky Sports. 

Manchester City v Newcastle United Team News/Form

Manchester City were minutes away from reaching a second consecutive Champions League final on Wednesday. The Citizens led 5-3 on aggregate against Real Madrid with two minutes remaining before Madrid scored two late goals and a third in extra time. The Citizens had previously won four matches in a row in all competitions, including three in the Premier League. Newcastle’s four-match winning streak was ended by a 1-0 home loss against Liverpool on Saturday. The Magpies beat Wolves, Crystal Palace, Leicester, and Norwich to steer well clear of relegation danger. 

In terms of injuries and team news, City’s John Stones is their only injury doubt. For Newcastle, Fabian Schar and Kieran Trippier could return to the squad. But Callum Wilson (calf), Isaac Hayden (knee), Ryan Fraser (thigh) and Jamal Lewis (groin) are out.

Man City v Newcastle Match Winner Betting Odds

Across the board, a Man City win seems the most likely outcome this weekend. As the Citizens’ only hope of claiming silverware is in the Premier League this season, they are clear favourites to remain at the top of the table with a win. Having won ten of their last 12 home matches in the Premier League at the Etihad, we are backing City to win once more at home. Currently, SpreadEx are providing the best odds at 1/5. A Newcastle victory appears unlikely this weekend, as the Magpies have not won in their last six visits to the Etihad. Eddie Howe’s side has also lost three of their last four on the road. Due to this, SpreadEx has placed Newcastle at 20/1 to win, while 10Bet has the best odds for a draw at 29/4. 

Win to Nil Bets

With low odds for an outright City win this weekend, further value can be found in backing the win to nil market. In four of their last six matches, City has kept a clean sheet, and they have beaten Newcastle to nil in four of the last five meetings. As a result, there is decent value on backing a Man City home win to nil at 17/20, provided by BetVictor.

Anytime Goalscorer Betting Tips

Furthermore, in the goalscorer market, additional value can be found. This season, Newcastle’s goals have been spread thinly throughout the squad, with no stand out goalscorer taking the mantle. However, on current form, Bruno Guimarães is the best pick from the Magpies ranks as the Brazilian has scored three goals in his last four matches. At 9/1 odds, provided by Unibet, a Guimarães goal at the Etihad could be a good outside option. Our anytime goalscorer tip for Man City vs Newcastle is in-form striker Gabriel Jesus. The Citizen’s impact sub has fired his way into the starting line-up in recent weeks following six goals in his last four matches, five of which came at the Etihad. With the Brazilian in excellent form, there is good value on choosing Betfair’s 5/4 odds for an anytime goal this weekend.
