Foul by Mohamed Diamé (Newcastle United).
David Silva (Manchester City) wins a free kick on the left wing.
Gabriel Jesus (Manchester City) wins a free kick in the defensive half.
City come again, this time with Sterling chasing a ball; again, Dubravka stands firm and takes possession from under the nose of the England man.
Now Jesus goes close to making it two for City as he latches onto a throughball and turns two defenders inside out. He shoots for the bottom-left corner from 12 yards - and Dubravka snaffles his attempt with gusto. A fine save from the Magpies keeper.
Aguero! The City striker launches a 22-yard strike in open space that tickles the outside of the right post. The hosts look in destructive form in the opening quarter-hour so far.
Man City are unbeaten in their last 21 top-flight games against Newcastle; it’s their longest ever unbeaten run against a specific top-flight opponent, as well as being Newcastle’s longest such winless streak.
Fernandinho tries his luck from distance, only to steer it wide to the left by some distance, his effort rolling casually away from both attack and defence.
This is a horror-show start for the visitors and it gets worses as Lascelles fouls Silva for a free-kick. From the set-piece, City earn a corner in quick succession, though this time, Laporte steers the effort wide to the right.
Assist Benjamin Mendy
goal!
Goal Raheem Shaquille Sterling
Newcastle win a free-kick in their own half, yet seem afraid to go forward from it and Jesus is able to force them to play back to Dubravka.
Mahrez comes again however and has the first shot of the match, hooking an effort from just outside the box wide at the right post.
City force the earlier chance, with Mahrez able to turn a cross in off the right wing, only to find Lascelles rather than Sterling.
We are underway in this Premier League encounter between Manchester City and Newcastle United!
The teams are out at the Etihad Stadium and we're moments away from kick-off.
Newcastle have lost each of their last nine away league matches at the Etihad, conceding 32 goals and scoring just six in reply.
Subs: Karl Darlow, Jamie Sterry, Christian Atsu, Sean Longstaff, Joselu, Jacob Murphy, Yoshinori Muto.
NEWCASTLE UNITED (5-4-1): Martin Dubravka; Jamaal Lascelles, Ciaran Clark, DeAndre Yedlin, Paul Dummett, Federico Fernandez; Mohamed Diame, Kenedy, Ki Sung-yueng, Ayoze Perez; Salomon Rondon.
Subs: Ilkay Gundogan, Phil Foden, Nicolas Otamendi, Bernardo Silva, Fabian Delph, Arijanet Muric, Vincent Kompany.
MANCHESTER CITY (4-3-3): Ederson; John Stones, Benjamin Mendy, Kyle Walker, Aymeric Laporte; Fernandinho, Riyad Mahrez, David Silva; Sergio Aguero, Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling.
As for Newcastle, they also make a trio of changes; Ayoze Perez is promoted to the starting XI following his goal against Chelsea alongside Kenedy and Jamaal Lascelles, the latter captain following rumours of a 'bust-up' with his manager. Fabian Schar, Matt Ritchie and Jacob Murphy all drop out.
Team news now and Manchester City make three swaps from the side who played in the Midlands; John Stones, Riyad Mahrez and Gabriel Jesus are all included at the expense of Vincent Kompany, Ilkay Gundogan and Bernardo Silva.
Pep Guardiola's side were held to an unexpected draw last time out against newly-promoted Wolves and will be looking to get back to winning ways in resounding fashion - but the Magpies are just as desperate to register their first win of the season too, following a humiliating exit in the Carabao Cup to Nottingham Forest this week.
Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Premier League as champions Manchester City host winless Newcastle United at the Etihad Stadium. Rafa Benitez's side have only mustered a point in their opening three games so far; can they spring an upset today to take something off their unbeaten hosts?
