In an unfortunate twist of fate, Newcastle United finds itself grappling with arguably the worst spate of injuries of any Premier League club, a situation that has taken a turn for the worse as they prepare for their FA Cup quarter-final showdown against Manchester City. Facing off against the titans of both English and European football at the Etihad Stadium is daunting under the best circumstances, but the challenge intensifies for the Geordies following a recent defeat at Chelsea.
City are the favourites in this tie and book a place at Wembley at 24/100 with CopyBet while the Magpies are 10/1 and a draw is 5/1. The injury list was already concerning with key figures Harvey Barnes and Kieran Trippier sidelined, but the situation escalated when Anthony Gordon, who has been stellar this season, sustained an injury that will see him out of action for a while.
This season has been particularly harsh on the Toon Army in terms of injuries, and their upcoming match in Manchester might be their final shot at salvaging a season devoid of trophies. Facing a depleted squad, Pep Guardiola's team, fresh from a hard-fought 1-1 draw at Liverpool and enjoying a near week-long rest before an international break, shows no signs of easing up against Newcastle. With no losses in their last 21 games, City's relentless form adds to Newcastle's mounting challenges.
Erling Haaland to score anytime - 8/15
Man City to score over 2.5 goals - 4/5
