Predicted Newcastle lineup vs Man City

GK - Martin Dubravka: Nick Pope is injured, so Eddie Howe has no choice but to start Martin Dubravka. Luckily, the Slovak has plenty of experience in games like this, we just hope he's taken some confidence from the clean sheet at the Stadium of Light.

RB - Kieran Trippier: Trippier is the man for the big occasion on that right hand side. After he suffered a dip in form in December, he seems to be back to his best now.

CB - Sven Botman: It's great to have Botman as a staple in the team again as he is a more assured option against big opposition.

CB - Fabian Schar: Having recently put pen to paper to extend his contract, Schar will look to justify this decision with another solid display from the back against a big team, something he's familiar with this season.

LB - Dan Burn: Man City's attack is a lot of things, but pacey isn't exactly one of them. That said, I think Dan Burn is a safe choice and the big man will look to use his physicality well both in 50/50s and aerial duels.
