After their UEFA Super Cup success, Manchester City face a tight turnaround before their big clash with Newcastle in the Premier League.
After a 1-1 draw in normal time, City beat Sevilla on penalties to lift the UEFA Super Cup for the first time in their history on Wednesday night in Greece. But, annoyingly for City, Pep Guardiola's side have only been given three days to prepare for a clash against Newcastle, with the Magpies travelling to the Etihad for the late kick-off.

We predict that the Magpies could line up in a 4-3-3 formation, with their line-up as follows: Pope; Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn; Tonali, Guimaraes, Joelinton; Almiron, Isak, Barnes.
It was an even start in the first half at the Etihad but towards the end of the half, City took advantage, and they took the lead in the 38th minute through Erling Haaland.
Mateo Kovacic drilled a pass into the feet of Jack Grealish who had drifted into the centre of the box, and a smart flick from the Englishman sent the
