2/12 Football Predictions: Newcastle United host Man United in a Premier League cracker

Home » 2/12 Football Predictions: Newcastle United host Man United in a Premier League cracker

Football Prediction 

Newcastle United will be hosting Manchester United in a Premier League game on Saturday in what promises to be a cracker.

The Magpies are coming into the game after a disappointing outing in Paris against Paris Saint-Germain where they felt hard done by the referee after giving a spirited display in the Champions League that ended in a 1-1 draw. This is another chance to boost their chances of participating in Europe again against a close opponent who wants to be in Europe too.

United on the other hand is one of the most in-form teams in the Premier League. But that hasn’t been the case in Europe where they threw a two-goal lead against Galatasaray on Wednesday night. They come against a side who have been blowing hot and cold but always shows up when the Red Devils visit their ground.

Team News 

Newcastle will once again be unable to call upon the likes of Harvey Barnes, Dan Burn, Sven Botman, Sean Longstaff, Joe Willock and Matt Target. Likewise, serving a global suspension and not available to feature again until next year, Sandro Tonali will be forced to watch from the stands on Saturday night.

Still dealing with a hamstring injury, Manchester United will once again be without ex-Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro on Saturday night. The Red Devils will also be unable to call upon the likes of Christian Eriksen, Lisandro Martinez, and Tyrell Malacia. While England international Marcus Rashford might have served a European suspension in midweek, United’s homegrown superstar will make a full return here.

Probable Line-Up

Newcastle United XI: Pope; Trippier, Lascelles, Schar, Livramento; Guimaraes, Longstaff, Joelinton; Almiron, Isak, Gordon

Manchester United XI: Onana; Dalot, Maguire, Lindelof, Shaw; McTominay, Mainoo, Fernandes; Rashford, Hojlund, Garnacho

Verdict 

Man United is becoming hard to predict in recent games because you never know which side will turn up at St James Park. Newcastle however have been playing free-flowing football and have plenty of goals in their side. With the shaky United defense, this is a game that should have goals.
