The Man City Newcastle betting for the live TV match on Sky at noon on Saturday at the city of Manchester Stadium has Svens men at six to five with Sams boys at eleven to five with the draw at the same price and so whichis the way to go here as both teams are riding high at present having done very well in the early exchanges of the Premier League but we just think that Man City look a little vunerable while Newcastle even after their midweek setback in the Carling Cup could just prove the stronger in what is bound to be a very close game with nothing given by either side and probably both teams would be happy to share the points.

Manchester City's fine start to the season has shown no signs of tailing off as they kept up their 100% home record with a Carling Cup victory over Norwich this week, and Sven Goran Eriksson's side have now won all 4 of their matches at the City of Manchester Stadium by the same 1-0 scoreline.
The Swede's preference for conservative football went out of the window last weekend, however, as City drew 3-3 in a thrilling encounter at Fulham - and the club's fans will surely be keen to see a more attacking approach in home games.
There has been some confusion over Rolando Bianchi's role at the club, with fans eager to see more of the silky striker signed from Reggina for £8.8m, though Eriksson may well prefer to stick with Emile Mpenza up front on his own as he aims to protect a perfect defensive record at home.
The City boss will certainly have plenty of options as he has a fully-fit squad to choose from, minus long-term absentee Valeri Bojinov, and this looks like a fine chance for his side to go second in the table in the first Premiership game of the weekend.
Manchester City have a fine record against Newcastle, who have recorded just one away victory here since 1994, whilst City have conceded just a single goal in the sides' previous 5 meetings. The home win is priced at 6/5, and given the impressive start to the season that City have made, that is an OK price as they take on a very well organised side in Newcastle.
Newcastle United moved into fifth in the Premiership with last Sunday's home win over West Ham, though their defeat at Derby in their previous fixture indicates just how much work Sam Allardyce has to do in getting consistent performances from his side, particularly away from home. The Magpies' away record reads won one, drawn one and lost one from games at Bolton, Middlesbrough and Derby - hardly the most difficult of starts on the road - and improving that record is imperative for Allardyce if he is to finally bring success to St James Park.
The new boss will have been delighted by Mark Viduka's superb performance and 2 goals in that win over West Ham, and he looks like being absolutely vital to the team this season, particularly with Michael Owen injured once again and out for a month, and the big Aussie should shake off an ankle injury in time to play here.
Owen's place should go to the equally dangerous Obafemi Martins, whilst Charles N'Zogbia was in lethal form against the Hammers and provides a real threat on the break with his lightning pace down the left.
Joey Barton will not be fit to face his old club despite being very close to a return to action, and he misses out along with Damien Duff, Celestine Babayaro, Steven Carr and Peter Ramage, so the side is likely to be the same one that lined up last weekend. The Geordies will be a real threat this season especially when they have everyone available.
