Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola won't underestimate opponents Newcastle.
The Magpies have a horrendous record against this weekend's opponents - losing 20 of their last 24 in all competitions - but have had improved success on home soil in recent years.
“It is not easy to go to Newcastle and get a result," Guardiola said.
“We will need the whole team and hopefully we will be strong enough to get the points.
“Newcastle is a very tough opponent. People will talk about our place in the table or their place in the table but when you go to Newcastle you know what sort of game to expect.
“Now they have a new manager in Eddie [Howe] and we know what a good manager he is.
“They have had a tough start to the season but they are a good team with good players and a top manager so we will go there and have to work hard for each other to win the game.
“Every game in the Premier League is tough. Whether you are playing against teams at the top of the table or the bottom.
“Everyone wants to win every match and at this level you have to be prepared for this.
“Newcastle in their stadium with their fans behind them, they will be ready and they have the quality to hurt us if we don't play at our best."
