Last Meeting: Manchester City 2-1 Newcastle United (Etihad Stadium)
The most recent league meeting at the Etihad, in February 2026, saw Manchester City win 2-1, with Nico O'Reilly scoring twice to help keep City in the title race at the time. It marked a return to winning ways against Newcastle following the Magpies' 2-1 win at St James' Park earlier in the season, when Harvey Barnes scored twice in seven minutes to secure Eddie Howe's first Premier League victory over Pep Guardiola at the 17th attempt – Barnes becoming the first Newcastle player to score twice against City in the Premier League since Alan Shearer in November 2003. Across the campaign, City also eliminated Newcastle 5-1 on aggregate in the EFL Cup semi-final.
Manchester City
Manchester City remain one of English football's dominant forces. Last season they finished as Premier League runners-up and completed a domestic cup double, winning both the EFL Cup and the FA Cup. Erling Haaland became the fastest player in Premier League history to reach 100 goals, doing so in 111 games in December 2025. The campaign proved to be Pep Guardiola's last after a transformative decade at the club, and his former assistant Enzo Maresca has been appointed as his successor on a three-year deal. The squad retains formidable quality and depth, and City will again be expected to challenge at the top while pressing their possession-based, attacking identity under their new manager.
Newcastle United
Newcastle United, under Eddie Howe, ended a decades-long wait for a major domestic trophy by winning the 2024-25 League Cup, beating Liverpool 2-1 in the final, and have established themselves as regular contenders for European football. The 2025-26 campaign proved a difficult one, however, with an inconsistent league season and a Champions League run that ended in the round of 16. Newcastle remain a strong outfit on their day at St James' Park, with quality throughout the squad including the likes of goalkeeper Nick Pope, midfielder Bruno Guimarães and winger Harvey Barnes, and will aim to return to the upper reaches of the table.
