Preview: Newcastle United vs Manchester United
This fixture promises to be a very important game in the context of the top-four race. Newcastle United currently sit in fifth behind Tottenham Hotspur, having played two games less, on 47 points. Their rivals on Sunday though, are third with 50 points on the board, and a win for Eddie Howe's men will see them take the third spot, pushing down United to fourth in the process.
Newcastle endured somewhat of a tricky patch leading up to the international break with losses coming against Manchester City, and Liverpool and draws against West Ham United and Bournemouth. Their only win in their last five Premier League games came against Nottingham Forest and so they will be looking for a fresh start on Sunday.
For Manchester United, it will be about maintaining their good form, like they did before the international break but every game is a new one and Erik ten Hag will be hoping that there will be no slip-ups from his side on Sunday.
United have looked like a different side under ten Hag but they will be going up a side that has looked defensively solid all season. Therefore, it is a different test entirely, one that the Red Devils must pass, if they are to cement their place in the top four. The Manchester outfit though will need goals from their other attackers as it has been Marcus Rashford who has been doing the bulk of scoring lately.
Prediction: Newcastle United vs Manchester United
This is a tough one to call. Newcastle United have been one of the best defensive sides in the Premier League this season while United have been scoring goals for fun under ten Hag lately. One can however expect this match-up to be an evenly fought one and we could see Newcastle secure a narrow 1-0 victory.
