Pep Guardiola‘s side went into the game against Newcastle United on 27 December 2017 with a healthy lead at the top of the Premier League, knowing that victory would take us 15 points clear of our rivals.
It would also be an 18th win in a row, a new Premier League record.
Guardiola and his players were hungry for success after a trophyless first campaign in Manchester for the Catalan. We all know how that went.
To continue our excellent form, we’d have to get past Rafa Benitez’s defensively stubborn Magpies.
