The contest charts for this weekend’s football are generally lacklustre, and this chart is no exception: There are very few strong testimonies here. The Moon applies to a square with the antiscion of Mars (lord 1): A weak testimony for the favourites, which is given greater strength by the antiscion of Mars’ placement on the cusp of the 10th house (the house of victory for the favourites).
With a lack of any counter testimonies for the underdogs, victory should go to favourites Liverpool, but the match is likely to be low-scoring.
Manchester City, favoured to win, are represented by Mercury (lord of the 1st house) and Saturn (lord of the 10th house; the house of victory for the favourites).
Mercury (also lord of the 4th house, the house of victory for the underdogs) is already spoken for as main significator for Manchester City, so in this contest chart Newcastle United are represented by just one planet (Jupiter, lord of the 7th house).
The Moon, which describes the action and events which define the match, is placed in the 7th house, very close to the house cusp. This is a positive sign for Newcastle, hinting that they can take control of the match.
Even more positively for The Magpies, Jupiter (in this chart, the main significator for Newcastle) applies retrograde to conjunct the Part of Fortune.
These are both powerful testimonies in favour of the underdogs: The signs are that Newcastle will play much better than the pundits expect: Manchester City will need to be on their guard if a major upset is to be avoided.

Although hosts Manchester City are just one place above Liverpool in the Premier League Table (2nd to Liverpool’s 3rd at the time of writing) they have the home advantage and are favourites to win this Sunday.
As favourites, City are described by Venus (lord of the 1st house) and Saturn (lord of the 10th house).
With the Moon (ruler of the 4th house) already occupied describing the events of the match, Liverpool have just one significator; Mars, ruler of the 7th house.
Mars (lord of the 7th house), applies to conjunct the antiscion of the Part of Fortune (at 08 Sagittarius 04): In the absence of any equally strong testimonies in favour of rivals City, this aspect would be powerful enough to hand victory to Liverpool. However, Mercury (at 06 Sagittarius 51) turns retrograde and intercedes before the aspect can happen. This could show Liverpool coming close to winning but being denied victory due to a missed opportunity or twist of fate.
The only other testimony of note is the application of retrograde Saturn to a sextile with the Part of Fortune. Aspects other than conjunctions or oppositions to the Part of Fortune are not usually reliable enough to guarantee a result on their own, but in an otherwise lacklustre chart may be enough to give City the edge.
Overall, this contest chart promises a low scoring game, between two equally matched teams. Manchester City will have a slight edge over their rivals, and a twist of fate may leave Liverpool fans feeling cheated of victory.
