Newcastle Utd vs Manchester City, 8pm GMT
Predictions: Man City Over 3.5 Goals @5/2
Manchester City travel to Newcastle United on Friday night in their first match since being officially crowned Premier League champions.
The Citizens lost 2-1 to Chelsea last time out, but Manchester United’s home loss to Leicester City on Tuesday evening made certain of a fifth title in 10 seasons.
As for Newcastle, they are now assured of Premier League safety thanks to an upturn in results that has eased the pressure on boss Steve Bruce.
With the EFL Cup and Premier League now in the bag, City’s main focus over the remaining few weeks of the season is to complete a famous treble by winning the Champions League.
Chelsea await in the final on May 29 whether that be in Istanbul, London or Lisbon but Pep Guardiola’s men have three more league games to play before then.
The Magpies raced four goals ahead against Leicester at the King Power Stadium and, while City did make things interesting with two late goals, a 4-2 win was still a great result.
That was United’s third win in five matches, the other wins in that sequence coming against Burnley and West Ham United, and they are assured of top-flight football next season.
