Manchester City did not live up to expectations in the away game against Liverpool and suffered a 4-3 defeat, with the "citizens" conceding 3 goals in the second half and losing the game. The victory today is imperative for Guardiola's team that at home in the last 5 matches scores for fun, having scored 4 goals in 3 matches, once 3 goals and once 2.
Newcastle were held to a 1-1 draw against Swansea and simply maintained a mini unbeaten run with 2 wins and 2 draws in recent league and cup games. Moderate things away from home, already having 6 defeats in 11 matches, however he usually finds the way to the net.
I expect an outburst from the hosts after the defeat by Liverpool and the defense of Newcastle refers to something similar. I hold the 1 & Over 3,5 on 1,97.
