Match Preview
Man United and Newcastle were both unable to hold on to victories in the Champions League in midweek, meaning that their hopes of progression hang in the balance. However, their focus turns back to domestic matters on Saturday, with both looking to continue their solid recent run of results.
United are currently the in-form team in the Premier League, as they have won five of their previous six. They also come into this clash having won each of their previous three without conceding. Newcastle bounced back to winning ways last weekend with a stunning 4-1 home success against Chelsea.

Newcastle have won each of their previous two matches across all competitions against the Red Devils, and they could win three on the bounce against United for the first time since January 1922. The Red Devils are also winless in their last three league matches against the Magpies, having played out two draws over that period.
An interesting trend to assess this weekend is the fact that Newcastle’s last five wins against the Red Devils have come to nil. In fact, if both teams have scored, the Magpies are winless in their last 30. Man United have won 25 of the previous 30 matches between the sides in which both teams have scored at least once.
Newcastle vs Man United Prediction
This should be an exciting match at St. James’ Park on Saturday. Despite playing out a 3-3 draw against Galatasaray in midweek, it is clear to see that United are improving, and their attacking players are certainly hitting their groove. Therefore, a chance is taken on the Red Devils with both teams finding the net.
