Newcastle are currently in fifth place and have impressed at home this season. They returned to form last weekend with a 3-0 win over Leicester City and will be confident coming into this one.
Eddie Howe’s side have been strong going forward, with Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon providing regular goal threats. They’ve also won their last two home games against Manchester United in all competitions.
With the home crowd behind them and better form, Newcastle will back themselves to get another result.

Manchester United are down in 13th and have been inconsistent all season. Their 2-2 draw against Lyon in the Europa League midweek showed both their attacking potential and defensive flaws.
Ruben Amorim is still trying to get the best out of his squad, and while Joshua Zirkzee has looked promising, United’s backline continues to leak goals. They’ve struggled away from home in recent weeks and face another difficult task here.
United need a big performance, but they remain unpredictable.
MatchPlug Prediction Newcastle United VS Man United
Newcastle have been the more consistent team this season and have a strong record at home. Manchester United still look shaky defensively and could be exposed by Newcastle’s pace and pressing. Expect the Magpies to edge this one.
Final Prediction: Newcastle United
