Manchester City
Manchester City is in incredible form. In 2024, Pep Guardiola's team has not yet suffered a defeat, and in the Premier League standings, they are only behind Liverpool and Arsenal by just one point. Moreover, the holders of the trophy from the previous season easily dispatched Copenhagen in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16. Last weekend, Manchester City played a thrilling 1-1 draw against Liverpool at Anfield. In the previous round of the English Cup, Manchester City thrashed Luton 6-2, thanks to five goals from Erling Haaland.
Newcastle
The current season has not been as successful for Newcastle as the previous one. Eddie Howe's team has been playing very inconsistently and currently occupies the 10th position in the Premier League standings. However, the Magpies still have a chance to finish in a European competition spot. On Monday, Newcastle suffered a 2-3 defeat away against crisis-hit Chelsea. In the English Cup Round of 16, Newcastle narrowly defeated Blackburn from the Championship in a penalty shootout.
Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history

Manchester City vs Newcastle prediction
Newcastle hasn't scored at Etihad Stadium since 2018. However, in the match against Liverpool, Manchester City were without their main goalkeeper Ederson, and Newcastle's attack has looked convincing in recent matches. I believe that Guardiola's team will advance to the semifinals, but both teams will score.
