Supporters living around the world can find out how they can tune in via our global listings below, courtesy oflivesoccertv.com.

OPPOSING MANAGER - Eddie Howe

The Englishman took over at Bournemouth in 2009 after being forced to end his playing career early due to injury.

He went on to guide the Cherries to promotion from the fourth tier.

He then left for a brief spell at Burnley in 2011 before returning to the south coast in October 2012 and continuing where he left off, eventually leading them to the Premier League in 2015.

They stayed in the top-flight for five seasons before relegation saw the end of his second spell with the Cherries.

2021 saw his appointment at Newcastle and since then, he’s taken them into the Champions League and won the League Cup, their first major trophy since 1955.

DANGER MEN

Anthony Gordon is proving to be Newcastle’s biggest threat in recent games as he won them a penalty against Manchester United in their Premier League outing on Wednesday evening.

The winger is fighting to claim a spot in the England squad for this summer’s World Cup and also scored away to Liverpool, as well as assisting the winner against Tottenham Hotspur.

Lewis Hall will be one to watch after he provided the equaliser for the Magpies in our previous head-to-head from 20 yards out.

Malick Thiaw is a massive threat from set-pieces, already claiming four league goals this season, so we’ll need to keep a close eye on him too.

PEP GUARDIOLA PREVIEW

Pep Guardiola will be facing the media for the pre-match press conference from 12:30 (UK) on Friday 6 March, where the City boss will provide all the latest team news updates and you can follow it live on our website and app.

Don’t worry if you are unable to watch Pep’s press conference as it happens as we’ll have a written review and video recap soon after it has concluded.

PREVIOUS MEETING

Nico O’Reilly scored twice as City closed the gap on Arsenal at the top of the Premier League to just two points.

We deservedly took the lead after 14 minutes when O’Reilly fired a left-footed strike past Nick Pope after fine work from Omar Marmoush.

Newcastle equalised when Lewis Hall’s effort from 20 yards out deflected off Rayan Ait-Nouri and flew past Donnarumma.

But we soon had our noses in front once again when O’Reilly bagged his second – this time expertly heading home from Erling Haaland’s beautiful cross into the box.
