Newcastle United vs Man City LIVE early team news, predicted line-ups and score predictions

Manchester City will be aiming to keep their 100 per cent record intact when they face Newcastle United on Sunday afternoon.

City travel north having made a great start to their Premier League title defence with dominant victories against West Ham and Bournemouth already in the bag. Arsenal are the only other team to have also won all of their games so far and the Blues will have to win by at least two goals if they want to go back to the top of the table on goal difference.

Pep Guardiola has a new squad member at his disposal after left-back Sergio Gomez arrived at the club earlier this week from Anderlecht, while Kalvin Phillips and Cole Palmer are back in contention after missing last week with knocks.

Manchester City take on Newcastle United on Sunday afternoon as they look to maintain their 100 per cent start to the season.

City have got their Premier League title defence off to a hot start with comfortable victories over West Ham and Bournemouth and will now aim to keep their place at the top of the table with a third win in succession at St. James' Park. Pep Guardiola has a new addition in his squad for the match after the arrival of left-back Sergio Gomez earlier this week.

Cole Palmer and Kalvin Phillips are also both back in the squad, with Guardiola having a near-clean bill of health for the match. Aymeric Laporte does remain sidelined, however.
