How the teams line up
Confirmed line-ups arrive about an hour before kick-off.
Home
Manchester City
One of the league's best sides. Man City should have most of the ball in front of their own fans at Etihad Stadium, so the question is whether Newcastle can stay compact for 90 minutes.
Away
Newcastle United
Organised and dependable, Newcastle usually win on the road at Etihad Stadium through midfield control rather than sheer firepower.
Match preview
