Manchester City dropped their first Premier League points last weekend and have another tricky game today as they take on Newcastle at St James' Park.
Only a last-gasp equaliser kept City at the top of the table as title rivals Arsenal came within a whisker of an epic Etihad win with 10 men.
Pep Guardiola also suffered a blow as key man Rodri picked up a knee injury that looks likely to end his season, and City's squad is starting to look a little stretched.
They will certainly be tested by Newcastle. Eddie Howe's men have made a good start to the season, although their unbeaten run ground to a halt at Fulham last weekend.

Newcastle United vs Manchester City top betting tips
St James' Park has been a tough venue for City in recent seasons, with just one victory in their last three visits. Two of those games were thrillers, with last term's 3-2 victory for City coming after a 3-3 draw in the previous campaign.
That suggests goals at both ends but combining BTTS with over 2.5 goals only take you to 4/5 in a Betano bet builder. Over 1.5 first-half strikes looks better value at 47/50.
Mateo Kovacic should deputise for Rodri in midfield and his battle with Bruno Guimaraes could be spicy. Kovacic is 17/5 with Betano to go in the book while the Magpies midfielder is 9/4 for a card. Combining those pics in a bet builder pays 13/1.
Newcastle will have a go and I like the 11/10 on offer at Bet365 for winger Anthony Gordon just to have an effort on target.
Arsenal vs Leicester City top tips
Arsenal look the real deal this season and will be out to build on that Etihad draw with a win when Leicester City come calling.
While a Gunners side packed with kids battered Bolton 5-1 in the EFL Cup in midweek, Leicester needed penalties to get past League Two Walsall.
Plenty of fans remain unconvinced by new boss Steve Cooper so the last thing he needs right now is a trip to the Etihad.
I'd imagine the Foxes will set up to frustrate so going for Arsenal corners could pay off. Backing the Gunners -5 in the corner handicap pays 10/11 with Bet365 but over five first-half corners looks better at 11/8.
Bukayo Saka is always a threat cutting in from the right and he's a tempting evens at Betano for anytime scorer.
Brentford vs West Ham United top betting tips
West Ham United boss Julen Lopetegui desperately needs a win at Brentford today after a terrible start to his reign in London.
The midweek 5-1 loss to Liverpool in the EFL Cup followed a 3-0 home humbling by Chelsea in the Premier League and fans are far from happy.
The Bees have won both their home games in the league this term so could be worth a punt to pile on the pain at 23/20 with Betano. Bryan Mbuemo will fancy his chances against a leaky Hammers defence and is 23/20 for anytime scorer.
BTTS and over 2.5 goals has come up in the last four games for Brentford so that looks a good option at 17/20, especially with both teams scoring in three of the last four for the Hammers.
Heart of Midlothian vs Ross County top betting tips
Heart of Midlothian binned boss Steven Naismith last weekend after slumping to an eighth successive defeat that left them propping up the SPFL Premiership.
Having finished third last term, it's a major surprise to see the Jambos at the bottom but they should get their season up and running soon and have the perfect chance as Ross County come calling.
The Staggies have lost their last two on the road to League Two Spartans and Rangers, with that defeat to Gers a 6-0 battering at Hampden. That's why Hearts are 13/20 favourites at Betano but combining a Jambos win with over 1.5 goals takes you to 51/50 in a bet builder.
Lawrence Shankland hit 33 goals last term, so his drought this season is a head-scratcher. He must surely get off the mark soon, and Unibet prices the Jambos captain at 31/20 for anytime scorer.

I don’t expect it to appear on any bookies lists but Mongolian game at lunchtime could be a goalfest. Spotted this game while having a bet through the week in this league and hoping it appears at Hills
For some reason the away side have fallen off a cliff this season. Last season they finished 5th of 10,winning 14 of 27 scoring 72 with a +25 goal difference….this season 5 straight losses with no goals scored and a staggering 55 conceded. To put that into context,they conceded 47 in the whole of last season.
0-14,0-3,0-7,0-13,0-21
That 7-0 loss was too a Khovd side they’d beaten 9-0,3-0 & 7-2 in the past year
21-0 loss last time out against as Deren team they beat in March & May
Falcons won 2 of the 3 H2H’s in apparently better times for Tuv in the last year

Sometimes games aren’t listed and appear when live. Il keep an eye.
No sign. Talking over 20 goals….9-0 at half time. If it’s not on score bar it’s not easy to find. 👍

Well done all winners
Morning all has Desmond put his tips up ??
Found them 👍
It’s below Evens but Sheffield Wednesday look a decent bet for most corners at 19/20.
West Brom have won 3 of 3 on the road but they’ve only gathered 12 corners in those wins while giving up 24. They lost the corner count 12-3 at QPR despite winning 3-2 & they lost 10-4 at Portsmouth while winning 3-0.
Sheffield Wednesday have been racking up corners this far with 48 in 6 games being the joint highest in the Championship. On home soil they have earned 29 corners in 3 matches,winning all 3 corner counts. 3-2 in a 2-0 loss to Leeds, 11-4 in a 1-1 draw with QPR & 15-1 in the opening 4-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle.
In home matches Sheffield Wednesday sit 3rd highest for corners gained(29) & joint lowest for corners against(7)
In away matches West Brom are 17th for corners gained(12) & 4th for corners against(24)
Sheffield Wednesday most corners 19/20
Blackburn v QPR
12+ match corners 5/4 Sky
BTTS and 20+ QPR booking points 5/4 Sky
Five of QPR’s six matches in the Championshop so far have seen at least 12 match corners and Blackburn’s last three home games have also seen at least 12. The last two H2Hs saw 14 and 17 match corners.
QPR’s nine games this season have seen goals at both ends. QPR have also received at least two yellows in their last eight. Good luck
