One of the favorites to win the Premier League this season, Manchester City will open their Premier League campaign with a tricky matchup against Newcastle.

Both of these teams are coming off of disappointing 2012-13 campaigns. The Citizens were pretty dismal in their title defense, finishing 11 points behind Manchester United. Meanwhile, Newcastle went from finishing fifth in 2011-12 to 16th last year, just five points clear of the relegation zone.

Still, both teams have cause for optimism. City were busy on the market this summer, signing Jesus Navas, Stevan Jovetic, Alvaro Negredo and Fernandinho, while Newcastle still have talented players in Yohan Cabaye, Hatem Ben Arfa, Mathieu Debuchy, Papiss Cisse and Jonas Gutierrez.

Let's break down what promises to be an exciting match.

When: Monday, Aug. 18, at 3 p.m. ET (8 p.m. BST)
