Manchester United vs Newcastle United: Preview and Prediction
Another big test for Ten Hag's rebuilding men
The Magpies are flying high and will provide a stern challenge
Manchester United will be looking to get back to winning ways when they host Newcastle United in the Premier League on Wednesday night. Erik ten Hag's side suffered a disappointing 3-2 defeat to Arsenal on Sunday, while Newcastle continued their impressive form with a 2-0 victory over Brentford.
United have now lost three of their last four Premier League games, and they will be desperate to avoid another setback against Newcastle. The Magpies are currently fourth in the table, and they will be confident of getting a result at Old Trafford.
Newcastle have won their last four Premier League games, and they will be looking to make it five in a row against United. Eddie Howe's side have been in excellent form all season, and they will be a tough test for United.
The match is set to be a fascinating contest, and it could have a big impact on the race for the top four. United need to win to keep their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League alive, while Newcastle will be looking to cement their place in the top four.
Predicted line-ups
Manchester United: De Gea; Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Shaw; Casemiro, Eriksen; Antony, Fernandes, Rashford; Martial
Newcastle United: Pope; Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn; Longstaff, Guimaraes, Joelinton; Almiron, Wilson, Saint-Maximin
Prediction
This is a tough game to call, but I think Newcastle will edge it. They are in better form than United, and they have a good record at Old Trafford. I predict a 2-1 win for the Magpies.
