The 12th round of the English Premier League promises fans another captivating night. Today, Manchester City will play away against Newcastle. The match kicks off at 10:30 PM Tashkent time and is considered one of the most anticipated matches of the round.
While Pep Guardiola's team stood out with consistent play in subsequent rounds, Newcastle has also earned a reputation as a team that doesn't easily give up to opponents at home. Therefore, intense struggle, high tempo, and dramatic moments are expected from both sides on this night.
Main squads announced - Khusanov is on the bench
The starting lineups of both clubs were announced ahead of the match. Sadly, Abdukodir Khusanov, whom Uzbek football fans are waiting for, was not included in the starting lineup this time and will start the match from the bench.
Newcastle's squad:
Pope, Hall, Sher, Barnes, Thiaw, Livramento, Joelinton, Murphy, Gimaraes, Voltemade.
It's clear that Eddie Howe's team is preparing for strong pressing and fast attacks. The center, led by Gimaraes, will be an important aspect against City.
Manchester City squad:
Donnarumma, Nunes, Dias, Guardiol, Silva, Nico, O'Reilly, Scherky, Doco, Foden, Haaland.
Guardiola is once again relying on the team's main attacking supporters - Phil Foden and Jeremy Docu operate on the wings, while Erling Haaland is in the center, suggesting that City has again chosen an attacking style.
Who will prevail?
Newcastle is known for being a team that has always been able to prepare on their home ground and shows tough character. However, the absence of a number of key players in the team can create difficulties for them.
Manchester City, with their super-powerful and experienced squad, are capable of punishing their opponents. In particular, Haaland's condition could seriously affect the outcome of the game.
What is expected from the game?
