Newcastle vs Man Utd prediction

Newcastle United have remained strong in both the FA Cup and the UEFA Champions League, with an upcoming tie against Barcelona in the latter, but the Magpies’ entertaining 3-2 loss at home to Everton at the weekend has continued to up the pressure on manager Eddie Howe, who has done an excellent job on Tyneside.

Manchester United are continuing to win and showing all of the hallmarks of United of the past, coming from behind to defeat Crystal Palace at the weekend to continue what has been a brilliant start to Michael Carrick’s interim era. However, the Red Devils’ performance level has dipped significantly of late and that will be a slight concern.

United have win six and drawn one under Carrick thus far but there is a feeling that a defeat may be around the corner and under the lights on a big occasion is something this Newcastle side tends to thrive on – so it wouldn’t be a massive shock to see that come this week.

Newcastle vs Man Utd tip: Newcastle to win
