Manchester United and Newcastle United will meet for the third time this season at Old Trafford on Wednesday night.

Match Stats

Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag is facing significant pressure at Old Trafford. The Dutchman has overseen only two wins in the last 11 games, with the team suffering consecutive defeats: a 4-0 loss to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park and a 1-0 home defeat to Arsenal over the weekend. The highest possible finish for United in the Premier League is sixth, but to achieve this, they must beat Newcastle in this match, win against Brighton on the final day, and hope that neither Newcastle nor Chelsea win their remaining two games. The recent performances have drawn heavy criticism from fans and former players, and failing to secure a win here would likely exacerbate their dissatisfaction.


Newcastle United, managed by Eddie Howe, have found their form late in the season with five wins in their last eight games and just one defeat in that span, placing them sixth in the table. Should Tottenham fail to earn any more points, Newcastle (or Chelsea) could clinch fifth place by winning their final two games. Newcastle's main challenge this season has been their away form, although they have won two of their last three away matches and four of their last seven. Additionally, they will be confident heading into this match, having beaten Manchester United 1-0 earlier this season at St James’ Park. Newcastle have won the last three encounters against United without conceding a goal and have lost only once in their last six meetings.


Prediction:  Man Utd 1-1 Newcastle
