With a first championship since 2004 glinting on the horizon, Mikel Arteta's side have displayed signs of nerves in the past two weeks as they twice squandered two-goal leads to draw 2-2 away at Liverpool and West Ham United.
The Spaniard looked rather crestfallen after the draw at West Ham in which Bukayo Saka missed a penalty. But Arteta was far more upbeat when speaking to reporters on Thursday. With an FA Cup semi-final against Sheffield United on Saturday, Manchester City's next league game is Wednesday's potential title-decider at home to Arsenal.
Newcastle slipped to fourth place last weekend following a 3-0 defeat at Aston Villa but fifth-placed Tottenham then slipped up by losing 3-2 at home to Bournemouth.Victory for Newcastle would be a huge step in their bid to return to the Champions League after a two-decade absence.
