Manchester City v Newcastle betting tips and predictions for this weekend’s football with expert free football betting tips.
'Saturday Night Football' on Sky Sports this weekend sees a stuttering Manchester City side host Newcastle United at The Etihad. Tune in at the usual time of 17:30 and here are some football tips to bet on the match with.
Thanks to their FA Cup debacle against Middlesborough, Manchester City have had 11 days to prepare for their home fixture against Newcastle this weekend. In this time they have also received the timely boost of Yaya Toure and Wilfried Bony – a January transfer signing from Swansea – returning from the African Cup of Nations.
For Manuel Pellegrini, the return of Toure will be of particular significance as his side struggled without the Ivorian's driving force in midfield and recorded only one win from seven games in the Premier League. However, The Citizens did put an end to that wretched streak with an excellent victory at Stoke last time out, with Sergio Aguero ending a brief dip in form with two well-taken goals.
For Newcastle United, but for an excellent run of five straight wins before Christmas, their form has been extremely unpredictable. However, since taking over from the recently departed Alan Pardew, John Carver has done well and Newcastle are unbeaten in their last three league matches.
Perhaps more significantly though, is the fact Carver appears to be getting the best out of summer signing Remy Cabella. Having spent several weeks chopping the half-time oranges under Pardew's reign, Cabella has nailed down a starting berth and recently broke his duck for the season in the excellent 3-0 win away to Hull City.
Browsing the early prices for this weekend's encounter and Man City are clear favourites at a best-priced 3/10. Newcastle are huge underdogs at 11/1, with the draw on offer at 5/1.
Despite the fact Newcastle actually won 2-0 in the League Cup the last time the two sides met, I really don't fancy their chances this weekend. Manchester City have won the last ten matches against Newcastle in the Premier League, as well as registering clean sheets in the last four of those clashes. Nevertheless, odds of 3/10 aren't exactly going to get the heart racing, so why not have a punt on our Man City v Newcastle correct score prediction. Taking the mean average from their last four games, 3-0 seems a decent shout and could leave you some room to manoeuvre on the in-play markets later in the game.
Therefore, back City to win 3-0 at 8/1 with Bet Victor on Saturday afternoon.
Moving into the goalscoring and man of the match markets and I can see this game perfectly set up for the return of Yaya Toure. Having scored five goals in his previous six games against The Magpies, his record is better than that of Sergio Aguero, yet his odds of 7/4 with Betfred are significantly more appealing than the Argentine's.
With that in mind, bet on Yaya Toure to score at anytime in 90 minutes and also bag the man of the match award at 6/1 with Bet Victor.
