Betting on Manchester City

In the midst of the fight for the Premier League leadership, Manchester City must take advantage of every single remaining home game, even next Saturday’s game. While Newcastle is one of the best teams in the current championship, Manchester City are five points behind the leader, Arsenal, and a defeat could represent a threat to their position in the scoreboard.

For now, Manchester City, coached by Pep Guardiola, have met their fan’s expectations, since they are the best team playing at home in the Premiership with 31 out of 36 potential points. They have only lost one game as locals, and no one has scored more goals than them, ending with 41 points.

In fact, Manchester City’s offensive is the best in the entire league with 64 goals scored, being reflected in the last four rounds where they have scored 11 goals.

Possible Lineup (3-2-4-1): Ederson; Manuel Akanji, Nathan Ake, Ruben Dias; Rodri, Rico Lewis; Ilkay Gündogan, Kevin De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva, Julian Alvarez; Erling Haaland.

Newcastle’s season performance is a clear example of what is called weakness on the field, and failure to manage the team’s strengths. Despite being the team with the fewest defeats in the Premier League with only two, Newcastle hold the fifth position in the scoreboard with 41 points, only 19 points behind the leader, Arsenal, given that they have two pending matches that could allow them to climb places into the Champions League.

The problem with Newcastle, coached by Eddie Howe, is that they co-lead this season regarding the amount of tied games with 11, and they drew five out of their last seven games in the championship against their opponents.

Unfortunately for them, they have not taken advantage of their great defense in the championship, which have cost them only 15 goals, since their attack has been very weak in recent weeks. In those seven games, they received four goals, but they have scored only three.

To top it all off, the last two weeks have been very discouraging, since they lost their unbeaten home record to Liverpool 2-0 on February 18. Besides, Manchester United beat them in the Carabao Cup final by 2-0 last Sunday.

Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Nick Pope; Kieran Trippier, Fabian Schär, Sven Botman, Dan Burn; Sean Longstaff, Bruno Guimaraes, Joe Willock; Miguel Almiron, Alexander Isak, Allan Saint-Maximin.

Newcastle have tried to make up for all the money invested in the team these last couple of months. However, they still seem to be lacking in their offensive, which could have an impact on this Saturday’s match against Manchester City.

The team coached by Guardiola has proved to be one of the best defensive teams this season. But don’t forget that Manchester City scored three goals against them as the visiting team on matchday 5, and that Newcastle is the best club at scoring at home.

Without an effective offensive that matches Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium, it looks very difficult for Newcastle to climb places in the Champions League this time around.

On top of that, Manchester City have easily won their last seven home games against Newcastle. During that time, they scored 28 goals, including three 5-0 games, and conceded just three goals.

Likewise, only four out of the last 11 matches between these teams have ended with fewer than three goals, and nine of them have had at least four goals on the global scoreboard. That’s why this is a great opportunity to bet on Unibet and win USD 68 for every USD 100 you bet on the Over 2.5, which pays out at (-148).

Prediction: Over (CITY 2 – 1 NEW)
