Manchester City vs. Newcastle: How they arrived at the match

Great start to the campaign for Pep Guardiola's team: two victories, six goals scored and none conceded. In the second match of the tournament, the 'Citizens' will seek another success to equal Arsenal (currently the only team that won all three matches) at the top. Meanwhile, the 'Magpies' will want to make their home ground count.

Erling Haaland arrived in the Premier League with great expectations. In fact, the striker responded with a brace in his debut, but in the following game he blanked and doubts arose. However, the '9' had another chance to respond and did so inside the box for Manchester City's 3-2 consolation goal against Newcastle in the Premier League.

Pep Guardiola's team went into halftime trailing 2-1 and, on top of that, the 'Magpies' scored a third goal early in the second half. So, everything was an uphill battle for the 'Citizens' at St. James' Park. Thus, the visitors made an effort to reduce the deficit on the scoreboard.

It all started with a pass from the wing that Kevin De Bruyne received. The Manchester City attacker floated the ball over the second post in Newcastle's box. In that position, Guardiola's men tried to continue their offensive and Eddie Howe's men tried to clear the danger to maintain their lead.

Rodri and Ruben Dias appeared on the side of the 'Sky Blues'. The midfielder won the aerial duel and, when it seemed like everything was ready for the clearance, the Spanish player stretched his leg and made contact with the ball. That pass fell to Haaland, who scored the second goal for his team and took the opportunity to celebrate towards the stands.

For this clash, recent signing Sergio Gomez could get some minutes. "He is ready," Guardiola said about Manchester City's new player, who arrived as a replacement for Oleksandar Zinchenko. The Spaniard also confirmed that Kalvin Phillips and Cole Palmer are back with the team.

On the other hand, Newcastle could make a change after the bitter draw at Brighton's stadium. Coach Eddie Howe wants to use three defenders and two wing-backs to face the powerful opponent. Therefore, Kieran Trippier will play on the right flank and Matt Targett on the other side. The latter must replace midfielder Joe Willock.
