Newcastle United v Manchester City live stream, Sunday August 21, 4.30pm

Looking for a Newcastle United v Manchester City live stream? You're in the right place.

Champions Manchester City are aiming to continue their perfect start to the season when they head north to face unbeaten Newcastle United on Sunday.

Pep Guardiola’s side got their title defence off to a strong start by beating West Ham and Bournemouth, scoring six goals and conceding none.

City and Arsenal are the only sides to get through the first two rounds with maximum points on the board, and the Citizens have been in top form.

Blockbuster summer signing Erling Haaland got off to a dream start with a brace in a 2-0 win at West Ham.

The Norwegian then turned provider for Ilkay Gundogan’s opening goal against Bournemouth, with Kevin De Bruyne, Phil Foden and a Jefferson Lerma own goal finishing the job.

City’s strong start is an intimidating sight for their would-be title rivals, but they could face a stern test at St. James’ Park.

Eddie Howe’s men beat Nottingham Forest 2-0 in their opening game, before holding Brighton to a 0-0 draw last time out.

A return of four points and zero goals conceded is an encouraging start for the ambitious Magpies, who had goalkeeper Nick Pope to thank for keeping the Seagulls out.

Recent history is firmly in City’s favour in this fixture; they hammered Newcastle in both meetings last season, 4-0 in the north east and 5-0 at the Etihad.

City have won the last six meetings in a row in all competitions, and Newcastle haven’t taken three points in this fixture in the Premier League since a 2-1 win in January 2019.

Kick-off is at 4.30pm BST on Sunday August 21 and it's on Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League. See below for international broadcast options.

VPN guide

Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there, including:
