Man City
- Sven Botman, Jamaal Lascelles, Lewis Miley and Callum Wilson remain ruled out, though the quartet are Newcastle's only confirmed absentees.
- Newcastle's midweek EFL Cup meeting with Wimbledon was postponed, so they have had plenty of time to prepare for Saturday's game.
- Alexander Isak is a doubt owing to a toe issue.
- Rodri is set to miss the rest of the season following a serious knee injury and joins Oscar Bobb and Nathan Ake on the sidelines.
- Kevin De Bruyne missed the midweek win over Watford and also won't return here.
