It’s FA Cup quarter-final weekend and Newcastle’s final shot at silverware sees them visit a Manchester City side who are seeking another treble. The Citizens come into the clash in fantastic form and I’ve backed them for success in my Man City vs Newcastle match predictions, with plenty of goals expected too.
With a high-scoring clash in prospect, I’ve picked out an attack-minded 42/1 Ultimate Bet Builder for Saturday evening’s game, which you can back with Betfair below. New Betfair customers can also take advantage of a great bet builder offer through the link below.
Man City vs Newcastle Ultimate Bet Builder
Julian Alvarez to score
Alvarez made the difference when these two sides met at the Etihad in the league this season and the Argentine looks like a great anytime goalscorer option this weekend. He’s been overshadowed by City’s returning stars but the World Cup winner in enjoying an impressive campaign.
Alvarez recorded a goal and an assist in City’s win over Copenhagen earlier this month and he can get another goal against the Magpies.
Alexander Isak to score
Newcastle have an in-form forward of their own here with Isak scoring in their last two games. The forward has scored in Newcastle’s last two clashes with City but he went a little off the boil after notching in their defeat in January, failing to score in four successive matches. However, he looks back to his best and he’s capable of continuing his scoring streak in this encounter.
Jacob Murphy 1+ shots on target
Murphy came off the bench to replace Anthony Gordon at Chelsea on Monday night and he scored a fantastic goal in their 3-2 loss at Stamford Bridge. Gordon remains a doubt for this clash and Murphy should start in his place. Buoyed on by that fantastic finish, he’s good value for a shot on target in this trip.
The winger has averaged 0.5 shots on target per league game in limited minutes this season and getting a start off the back of a great display should see him get forward and try to trouble City’s stand-in keeper Stefan Ortega.
Over 6.5 Man City corners
City are incredibly dominant when it comes to corners at the Etihad, averaging over eight per game in the Premier League this term. The Citizens average well above seven per match overall in the league and they’re likely to dominate possession against Newcastle, so expect them to have plenty of set piece opportunities.
Newcastle concede five corners per away league game and that number is set to increase here. With City backed to get forward, look to them recording at least seven corners.
