Manchester City host Newcastle United in the Premier League on Wednesday evening.

City will be looking to bounce back and find some consistency at the end of this campaign, after two defeats in their last three games.

While the title race is over, City will want to be firing on all cylinders as they head into an FA Cup semi-final and the latter stages of the Champions League.

Newcastle are 12th after a decent run of their own, with no pressure on them at this stage of the season.

Here is everything you need to know about the game.

Prediction

Newcastle have been defending well, taking their chances and improving confidence of late, but without anything concrete to play for it’s tough to see them holding out against Man City.

Dominance of possession and territory will likely ensue, and it’s just about whether City can find a clinical edge this time after missing so many chances against Southampton.

Man City 3-0 Newcastle
