The Magpies have looked quite solid in the opening rounds of the new Premier League season. After five matches, Newcastle has accumulated ten points, which allows them to hold sixth place in the standings.
Newcastle is just three points behind the Premier League leader. It’s worth noting that the Magpies play for victory in every match, although they don’t always manage to secure points.
For example, last weekend the Magpies played an away match against Fulham, in which they lost 1-3. Prior to that, they defeated Wolverhampton 2-1 away. Additionally, Newcastle advanced past Nottingham Forest in the League Cup, winning in a penalty shootout.
The Citizens have been the strongest team in England for several years and show no signs of slowing down. However, for the second consecutive season, Arsenal is hot on Pep Guardiola’s team’s heels. Last weekend, City hosted Arsenal at home and narrowly avoided defeat.
Arsenal won the first half 2-1 but were reduced to ten men. As a result, City spent the entire second half attacking the Gunners’ goal, managing to equalize only in stoppage time.
Before that, it should be noted that City also drew at home with Inter Milan in the Champions League. Earlier this week, Manchester City secured a 2-1 home victory over Watford in the League Cup.
