This can be a rather plausible outcome for Newcastle if they score three so much needed points on Norwich. Similarly, Newcastle and Man City are on the top of their success, having prevailed 3-0 at weekend games, and yet they are equally on the verge, so this game won’t forgive any mistakes.
At the same time, Manchester city is also far away from the secure top-four position, taking into account the dangerous games that are still ahead of them (the 8th of May involving Arsenal), this promotion to the third step on the rear due to three-in-a-line victories cannot give them any guarantee.
Manchester United is in a more favorable position at the moment. If they manage to win all five games they are still to have, this will create a great chance for them to get in, even if they meet Arsenal or Man City they definitely would have to lose a minimum of 5 points to open the way for them. Preceding this Man Utd will do everything to avoid possible mistakes.
Newcastle has recently shown that they are more than ready for this game, at least judging by a number of their victories, 5 out of six in home matches and 10 out of 13, they are suspected to be able to show their best play just as they did with West Ham and Liverpool. The only unfortunate match for them, among their last nine games, was at St James’ Park.
Manchester City has actually scored most of the 10 league matches and with the average result of more than one goal; seven of the games had the minimum four scores. The one of the most obvious reasons for this is the return of de Bruyne. He got better and has regained his physical form and of course now he is in his full readiness to continue succeeding. And yet, recollecting their failures during 2013/2014, where they managed to defeat only four of 11 competitions, the faith in their victory is rather obscure.
Whatever happens during the match Newcastle should keep away from a complete crash as this will toss them to rear positions. The teams are having a very slight score dissimilarity. This also means there won’t possibly be a goal chase during the game. The possibility of the Magpies having 2-3 scores in this game is 2.1. It is seen from their previous eight games played at home, where they had sharply 2-3 scores.
