After asserting their title credentials before the international break, Manchester City have a tough domestic test following the final interval of 2025, as they visit Newcastle United at St. James’s Park.
This hasn’t exactly been a happy hunting ground for the Cityzens as of late, failing to win on three of their previous four trips in all competitions, and the Magpies remain an imperious force in front of the Toon Army. They just can’t perform on the road.
