Head-to-Head
Manchester United hold a 88-43 advantage over Newcastle, with 39 draws, in 170 meetings.
Manchester United romped home past Newcastle 4-1 at St James’ Park in the reverse English Premier League fixture in October 2020. Harry Maguire, Bruno Fernandes, Aaron Wan Bissaka, and Marcus Rashford all found the back of the net.
Man United Form
Manchester United are undefeated in six games across all competitions, drawing three and winning three.
They drew 1-1 with West Brom last weekend in the English Premier League. Bruno Fernandes’ equaliser cancelled out Mbaye Diagne’s early opener at The Hawthorns.
Fernandes scored twice on Thursday night as United thrashed Spanish side Real Sociedad 4-0 in the UEFA Europa League. Marcus Rashford and Daniel James also grabbed a goal each.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s charges have lost just one match in their last 18 Premier League outings – a shock 2-1 loss at Old Trafford to bottom of the table Sheffield United was the only negative during that period.
Over 5.5 goals have been scored in two of Manchester United’s last two home matches in the Premier League. A 3-3 draw with Everton followed a 9-0 victory over Southampton. Same again?
