When we played Newcastle at home, I thought they would be a yardstick as to how much we had improved since the last time we played them - when they seemed so much bigger, stronger and effective than City. That we managed a draw - and looked on a par to them spoke volumes (I'll leave those to TOBW).

So now we've found our feet in the PL; Newcastle haven't made much if any progress and seem determined not to win at home - I think we'll get a draw at the very least on Saturday.
