Newcastle United vs Manchester City
Newcastle United welcome Manchester City to St James' Park for an EFL Cup semi-final first leg clash on Tuesday.
Home form has been pivotal in the Magpies’ campaign this season, although the Citizens have also done some good work on their travels. Both teams should be fired up for this one and could be set to serve up goals.
Newcastle United News
It has been a smooth title defence so far for Newcastle, who are now three games away from retaining the EFL Cup. They reached the semi-final after claiming a 2-1 home victory over Fulham, with Lewis Miley getting the goals.
St James' Park has played a pivotal role for Newcastle this season, and they are unbeaten in their last 13 home matches across all competitions. Eddie Howe's team will head into this clash in high spirits after progressing to the FA Cup fourth round, following a 3-3 home draw with Bournemouth in extra-time.
Newcastle often show their attacking quality at home and have scored at least one first-half goal in four of their last six matches in front of their fans. However, they are without a clean sheet in seven of their last eight matches, with all seven fixtures producing over 2.5 goals.
Manchester City News
Sitting six points behind Arsenal in the Premier League title race, the EFL Cup will now hold plenty of significance for Manchester City this season. A 2-0 victory over Brentford was enough to earn a semi-final berth, with Rayan Cherki and Savinho getting the goals.
Manchester City’s form has been solid lately as they are unbeaten in their last 10 matches across all competitions, earning a 10-1 victory over Exeter in the FA Cup third round. Pep Guardiola's team are also unbeaten in their last five away matches.
Goals are not a problem for Manchester City, who have scored in nine of their last 10 matches across all competitions. However, they are without a clean sheet in four of the last five fixtures on this run, while six of their last seven away matches have produced over 2.5 goals.
Head to Head
Manchester City have eight wins and two draws, while Newcastle have been victorious just twice in the last 12 matches. However, the Magpies are unbeaten in four of the last five home meetings and claimed a 2-1 victory in their Premier League clash back in November.
Verdict
It is always an open contest between Newcastle and Manchester City, and with both teams scoring in four of their last five meetings at St James' Park, a repeat is expected here. Seven of the last 10 meetings at Tyneside have also produced over 2.5 goals, and a similar outcome could be on the cards.
Newcastle United have scored at least one first-half goal in four of their last six home matches, and that trend is likely to continue here.
