Goal Statistics

Manchester City's defensive record is to be admired, Pep Guardiola's men having conceded 1 or less in 11 consecutive English Premier League matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.3 for Newcastle United makes sense in this context.

Manchester City's forwards have been excellent of late, finding the net twice or more in 13 consecutive English Premier League games. A PG of 2.1 suggests that run should continue on Saturday lunch time.
