Newcastle are one point behind their opponent. Both teams are below the Champions League qualification zone. Even those who will win this game won’t be able to get to the top 4. Newcastle had a very tough game in the Champions League this week. They failed to beat PSG (1:1), with the second half being led by the French side. Newcastle could have won though, but the hand ball in the late minutes of the game and the penalty kick that followed put an end to these dreams.
A Champions League clash with Galatasaray was even more terrible for Man United. The Red Devils were leading 2:0 by the 18th minute. However, awful mistakes committed by André Onana affected the game a lot. As a result - 3:3 and Manchester United are really about to end their European season. In the Premier League everything’s fine for them though. They have won 5 out of their last 6 games, besides the one against Manchester City.
Perhaps surprisingly, Newcastle have won two last games against the Red Devils. Last month the Magpies beat their opponent in the EFL Cup (3:0). Last April Newcastle managed to do the same in the Premier League (2:0). However, basically the upper hand was Manchester United’s before that. They won 5 out of the last 7 games in all tournaments, with the other two ending in a draw.
Bookmakers believe that Newcastle are the favourites. You can bet on the Magpies to win at around 9/10. The odds for a draw and Manchester United to win are almost the same. You can pick either of these options at around 29/10.
Manchester United haven’t lost with handicap 0 in 15 out of the last 19 head-to-head Premier League games on the pitch of Newcastle (11 won, 4 void).
Manchester United have executed more corner kicks than their opponent in 6 out of the last 7 head-to-head Premier League games on the pitch of Newcastle.
Tough Champions League games will have their impact on this match. Both teams are emotionally unstable after what happened to them in the European tournament. I believe that the defensive line of Manchester United, and especially their goalkeeper, will not be calm in this game. I think that many players will be nervous, which will lead to mistakes and goals. I still can’t believe in Manchester United. Their downfall doesn’t seem to end. I’m far from risking and betting on someone to win. But I’m pretty sure that both teams will have their chances to score.
