Team News

Newcastle
Man Utd
  • Newcastle's injury issues show no signs of letting up with Eddie Howe potentially without 11 players for Saturday's welcome of Manchester United.
  • Sean Longstaff will be assessed for the home side, though Lewis Miley may keep his place in midfield regardless.
  • Howe may have to go with the same XI that came close to securing victory at PSG.
  • Erik ten Hag is unable to call upon no fewer than eight players for the trip to Newcastle.
  • Marcus Rashford missed the 3-3 draw with Galatasaray due to a ban but should return to the XI.
  • Kobbie Mainoo is also expected to start alongside Scott McTominay in midfield.

Prediction

  • Newcastle were seconds away from a historic win in Paris in midweek, but were forced to share the spoils in a 1-1 draw with PSG. The Magpies have won eight of their 10 home games this season, with Liverpool the only Premier League side to come away with a result this season.
  • Manchester United have won five of their last six league matches however they looked poor defensively in their 3-3 draw at Galatasaray on Wednesday, that their first stalemate of the season. United have already fallen to a comprehensive loss to Newcastle this season and have won just one of their last four visits to St. James' Park.
  • Given Newcastle's home form this season, a narrow Magpies victory wouldn't be a surprise.
