In today’s FA Cup clash, Darren Ambrose predicts that Manchester City could easily defeat Newcastle United. Following their 6-2 victory over Luton Town in the previous round, City aims to secure a spot in the semi-finals by facing the Tyneside club at the Etihad Stadium.

Ambrose, a pundit, anticipates a one-sided game and highlights two key City players who could shine in this match. In an interview on talkSPORT, he expressed his belief that Newcastle could face a heavy defeat against the dominant City side.

With City scoring 12 goals in their three FA Cup games this season, including Erling Haaland’s five goals against Luton, Ambrose emphasizes the challenge Newcastle will face. Considering Eddie Howe’s team conceding 16 goals in the Premier League since their last encounter with City in January, the odds seem stacked against them.

Despite scraping past Blackburn Rovers in the previous FA Cup round, Newcastle’s defensive struggles and City’s impressive attacking prowess make it difficult for Ambrose to envision his former club overcoming the reigning champions.

The international break provides City with the opportunity to field a full-strength squad, further complicating Newcastle’s chances. With Phil Foden in top form and Haaland’s goal-scoring prowess, Ambrose believes Newcastle will have a tough time containing City’s attacking threat.

Overall, Ambrose’s prediction reflects the dominance and firepower of Manchester City, making it a challenging task for Newcastle to cause an upset and progress to the semi-finals of the FA Cup.
