THE PREDICTION
Manchester United are no stranger to starting a season poorly in these current times, and often see their form improve throughout the latter stages of the season. However, their game against Newcastle is a must win, despite being so early on in the season. But Newcastle will be no push over having accumulated some good results so far. If United do manage to get their much needed three points, then it won’t be by much, with a victory by only a one goal margin looking very possible, much like their only win this season (3-2 vs Brighton).
